Sudbury - Girling Street (Suffolk)

Once standing in the grounds of old offices belonging to British Telecomm, this tree is now pride of place in the garage showroom forecourt in Girling Street (A131). It is now growing in its own neat circle of earth surrounded by new block paving. The pictures show both before and after this boundary change which certainly made measuring a lot easier! It is not always easy to appreciate just how tall Giant Redwoods grow, but walking past this superb example it becomes quite apparant.
