As Park Ranger, Charles’s responsibilities include offering guidance to the Deputy Ranger, along with his team, to help focus on the day-to-day stewardship of one of the country’s oldest estates. Charles has already taken over running Sandringham estate in Norfolk, and will put his environmental interests and longtime conservation work to good use in his latest role as King. The Great Park is home to a number of veteran, and ancient, oak and beech trees. Prince Philip reintroduced red deer to the Deer Park back in 1979 and then in 2012, a row of young native oaks called Ranger’s Avenue was planted. Articles Trending Now
