The Mighty Oak is the tree of the Watson Society.
It is found on the Chief's Coat of Arms and on the
Clan Badge. (Two hands extending out of clouds are shown
gripping a young oak sapling with roots showing.) The Watsons worked with the Forrester Family in planting and care of the forests in Scotland. There were Five Oak Trees leading up the lane to the Estate at Saughton. When a school was built on this estate after Saughton House burnt the children re-planted the five Oaks on the road into the school. This Estate is now part of the village of Corstorphine, approximately three miles from Edinburgh.
