Forest gate

 
A hairy forest gate. Although as far as I gather not classified as Temperate rainforest, pockets of the New Forest can exhibit some similar features. Thick moss covers trunk and bough, and lichens hangs thickly from branches and woodland furniture. Pockets of fairytale woodland hollow are common. It's an aspect of the forest I've seen develop over the years, maybe associated with the restoration of the forests streams and subsequently a wetter forest.
