If I was Englishly-erudite enough to have used the subjunctive ‘were’ back there, I might’ve also described this as a copse beside a sward. But things being otherwise, I guess it’s just a bunch of trees beside the open recreation area on Lamb Island. And to bring this post all the way down to earth, behind the trees is actually where the council guys keep their stockpile of gravel and stuff for when they work on the island’s roads. But whatever, it looks nice, right?
