Maths

Captain Blackheart buries his treasure but loses his treasure map! But all
is not lost. His trusty crew remember different bits of the map.
"I remember drawing it with 5 squares each way,'' says the Captain. 
"There was a row of three trees running due East from the square (1,1)",
Peg Leg Pete says. "You put each one of them on a different square."
"Weren’t there four granite boulders going due South from (5,5)?" John
asks. "I think you put one of them each in a square too."
"Ah!. Now I remember!" yells the Captain. "I buried the treasure halfway
between the first rock and the most western tree!"
Where is the treasure?
