 Giant Redwood - November 2022 |
| Boxted Hall contains many fine examples of Giant Redwood. We originally found this Redwood location in 2003 when on a journey elsewhere, and our visit in 2006 was cut short because of bad weather but we were hoping to return to take more measurements when time permited. Some seventeen years later in 2022 we were able to take more photographs and measurements of this fine set of Giant Sequoia. |

| Before fences were put around to protect them, a few of the trees were exposed to grazing animals and consequently have some bark missing. As you can see from one of the pictures, the dreaded ivy or tree creeper has been dealt with. Unchecked, this menace can spoil an otherwise lovely tree. |
