Giant Redwoods - June 2008
Two beauties stand in the grounds of MacKenzie Kerr Chartered Accountants on Southside Road. Both measured exactly the same height and look equally healthy. According to one of the employees, the house being used by the company was originally known as Redwoods, and they plan to have a new plaque showing this name made for the building.
