The Poem Tree was a beech tree with a poem carved into it by Joseph Tubb located on Castle Hill at Wittenham Clumps in Oxfordshire England. The tree which was believed to be around 300 years old collapsed through a combination of long-standing rot and inclement weather in July 2012.The poem was carved in the 1840s. A stone including a transcription and rubbing of the poem was erected close to the tree in 1994 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the carving.
