Kersey - The Old Vicarage (Suffolk)

Giant Redwood - September 2023

This Giant Redwood was found on an afternoon's drive to Kersey. It stands at the top of Church Hill in the grounds of The Old Vicarage.

Kersey St. Mary's Church and old fashioned road signs

Kersey is a delightful Olde Worlde village with plenty of fantastic old buildings and a ford that runs across the main street. There's a couple of really old road signs, one with a flame which warns about children crossing nearby. A walk up to the church offers a great view of the village, it's a steep climb but well worth the effort. Also at the top of the climb is its most important feature which is of course the Giant Redwood tree!
