David wrote, "Here are various shots of the Pinetum. There are fifteen Big Giants here varying in height from 70 to 80 feet.
They are planted randomly with Douglas fir, a small number of Coast Redwoods and other interesting conifers."

David also found "Four on a large mound or rath behind the north side of the walled garden in Hillsborough Castle estate and two on the south lawn of the castle garden."
