Not sure people know what they're talking about

The article states: "The sacred trees at clootie wells are usually hawthorn trees, though ash trees are also common." But there is a picture here of half of all "clootie wells" known-mentioned, and...

Munlochy = those are beeches
Sancreed = That's an oak
Madron = This one's hard to tell, but it's certainly not an ash or hawthorn. Looks most like the American weedy hybrid Amelanchier ×lamarckii, but might be a bullace-like Prunus or some other non-native ornamental.
Kilallan= To the left near the cattle fence is a young elderberry, with possibly a young birch growing through it. The branches from the left are difficult to identify, may be beech or oak. On top of the ruins-outcrop is a small elderberry with a beech behind it. The evergreens are all non-native Picea (firs or spruces) evidently planted some time ago. There is also some Hedera growing on the outcrop behind the bricks.
