OK, It is a Walnut!

Here is my second offer-

Thirty white horses upon a red hill, now they tramp, now they chomp, now they stand still.

Sidenote the source for my riddles is a collection of nursery rhymes and riddles assembled in the 1920's or earlier that was reprinted around 1940. Some of the terminology is a bit archaic.

The answer to this one is an OLD chestnut!

Do a hard one!

Alright; here a hard one-
