| Several people have told us over the years about there being many redwoods in the Leighton Buzzard area, and they were certainly not wrong! There was not time to count how many are in Heath Court and surrounding roads but the above photographs show a few of them. One of the photographs shows a house with at least three large Giant Redwoods in a small back garden. |
