Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Dove your right, the alder was used for making clogs in years gone bye. Its also grown to help enrich the ground as like peas it forms nitrogen on its roots. Busy the alder was most commonly used as it had very few uses as it doesn't burn while the birch did. Ill try and be clearer if i ever get another go

As in rock rose ?
