Barton, where it appears quite at home, and often 
erows into a considerable tree. I have no doubt 
it is one of the really native trees of the district, 
though the whole country has long since been 
reduced into such an artificial state, that it may 
be impossible to say of any one particular tree, 
whether it was self sown or not. 
A tree of this common Maple near the ‘‘ Nector 
Hall” cottages, in this parish is seven feet in the 
circumference of the trunk, at three feet from the 
ground. Mr. Kingsley remarked to me (October, 
1873) that he had nowhere seen the common 
maple growing to so large a size, or so handsome 
as here, about Barton.
