do you know whether this pine is found also in England?

What pine is it mira, could it be stone pine, pinus pinea, there are a lot of pines.
A close up of the needles and cones would help.

 

It certainly looks like a stone pine to me, quite prolific here, although I must say I've never seen such tall trunks.

 

it is a maritime pine

 

They grow all along the coastline here, I have painted them in some of my pictures. :D

Yes you get them in Britain particularly in the South. I found some on sand dunes in Brittainy, brought home a pine cone and a few weeks later found a scattering of seed. My home town now has a clump of these atop an artificial bund as a result. They grow fast and have big needles.

 

Yes, geoffhandley, I agree about the needles, they can really be a sea of needles. I do like these trees a lot and in Rome and Pompei for example, there are gigantic exemplars of these beautiful trees.
