One Tree Hill ?

Some folks may know of the adolescent drama One Tree Hill, I've never watched it. It's filmed in a nearby area. I was looking around on Google Earth and spotted the area, and the tree shown in the advertisements.

We went down for a look while in the area.

There are actually three trees on that hill, and it's not a hill.

It's actually the Bradford Battery, a gun emplacement that is part of Fort Fisher, the site of the largest sea battle of the War of Northern Aggression.

I wonder what imaginative individual came up with the idea.
