Here is a discovery of nine Giant Redwoods next to Hastingwood Farm on Hastingwood Road near Harlow. They are growing in a line among other trees, one of which was blown down in a recent gale. Although the proximity of the other trees means that the overall shape of the Redwoods is not as grand as they could be, the trunks themselves are in fine form. Another three Wellingtonia are at the other end of the farm, also unfortunately a little crowded by brush and other trees.
