A Coast Redwood stands at the entrance to the St. Leonard's Church hall, close to the Giant Redwood next door in the garden of Wellington House. The Coast Redwood has several stems, which is not unusual for these trees. It would be interesting to know if the two trees had been planted at the same time.

A corner of the cemetery is being developed as a wildlife haven and a plaque reads: "This area was planned and created with the help of the children of St. Leonard's Heath and Reach VA (voluntary aided) Lower School".
