'Un 'chantemerle' en langage paysan ou forestier peut signifier un arbre coupé à 1,50 m de haut pour représenter la limite d'une parcelle de bois par rapport à la parcelle voisine. Lors des coupes de bois les bûcherons ont pour habitude de laisser des chantemerles pour marquer les différentes limites d'une parcelle de terrain.' Wikipedia (remark in French, as published)
