A London Advent Calendar – Day One: The Elfin Oak Of Kensington Gardens

December 1, 2012 By Pete Stean

I’ve decided that in the run up to Christmas it would be nice to celebrate some of the places that I’ve visited over the year.

Over the next twenty four days my London Advent Calendar will highlight two places that I visited in January, two in February and so on, until we get to Christmas Day.

First is the Elfin Oak, which was created by illustrator Ivor Innes between 1928 and 1930 and sits in Kensington Gardens. You can find my January post all about it here.
