I imagine if one stepped into the path of a car on the road on one of their circuits around the tree, one might indeed see the devil!  And sooner than expected!

Been past this tree countless times just south of Marlborough, and a couple of years ago, steel bands were put around its' trunk to help it. That's a 60 mph road next to it, so dancing around it might be a bit hazardous. Jane Seymour's Dad John, is buried the other side of the forest at Great Bedwyn.

I think it was at her brother's house in Hampshire, Henry and Jane got married after awaiting news that wife Anne Bolyn had been executed first.

And to answer your question, Babs, if I danced naked around that tree, I don't think even the devil would come for a look.
