Admin HistoryThe Darley oak is a tree which grows near Darleyford on the edge of Bodmin Moor which is believed to be at least 1,000 years old and central to many local legends. Folk traditions attribute healing properties and the power to grant wishes to the tree and its acorns were once worn for luck as amulets by pregnant women.
