I found this apple tree at work last week doing transmission inspections. There were a couple hawthorn that looked the same. I thought it was pretty neat, and must have taken years to get past the browsing pressure. Almost seems armoured now. It has grown out the top and looks like it fruits. I thought it might be a witches broom but I think it is repeated browsing. I chased 9 deer down the ROW for most of the day.
