Haslemere - Redwood Manor (Surrey) |
This large Giant Redwood at Redwood Manor in Tanners Lane is yet another that was originally found by Luke during his travels in Haslemere. This tree has lost a few metres from the top some years back, possibly due to a lightning strike or storm damage. The picture above shows the bark very wet after a morning of persistant rain. |
Next to the car park there is also a young tree, perhaps around seven to ten years old. If anyone has any knowledge of the exact planting date we would be pleased if you would Contact us with information. |
Next to the Wellingtonia is this magnificent old Cedar. It is covered in an immense quantity of cones and each year, unfortunately, it covers the area with a liberal dusting of bright yellow pollen! A small price to pay for such a fantastic view. |
