Travelling along the A414, this group of young Giant Redwood are difficult to miss. There are fourteen of them altogether, with one having a split trunk. It is great to see that someone (probably the council) has made the effort to creat something a little out of the ordinary. It would be marvellous to be able to look a hundred years into the future and see the long term result of this nice piece of planning.
