There are in England a good many places named "Cheadle", and indeed there are several High Shutts in one Cheadle or another. The quickest way to track down the scene in this card is then to look for the image not in Wikipædia but in Ghoogol, which places it in the Staffordshire Moorlands: "between the village of Oakamoor and the old market town of Cheadle, just a few miles due west of Alton Towers". But the tree in question is said no longer to exist, which means that our card could well be some kind of fabrication or fake:

This photo-graph, taken in Edwardian days, may or may not be of the same tree:

Cheadle itself thrillingly dates back to Anglo-Saxon times:

The Cheadle Academy (formerly known as the Cheadle High School - and closed to-day because of cold weather - minus nine centigrade) offers us a display entitled "British Values":
The last of these is just another name for "rule by the mob" and it is wrong to teach such criminal behaviour to the innocent.
Also, "Tolerance" in Britain is no more than a word, not a reality.
And one "value" left out of that list is "keep foreigners out of our 'country'". We would change that to "abolish Britain and all other 'countries'".
