| This Giant Sequoia stands in the grounds of Fir Close Care Centre opposite Westgate Fields. It is worth taking a stroll through the park to Hubbards Hills, where a delightful walk along the river reveals a number of gems. |
 The erosion of the bank alongside the river has exposed the roots of this tree - not a Redwood! |
 A serene stroll through this valley is remarkably quiet despite the nearby main roads |
 This elaborate drinking fountain bears an inscription describing the origin of this public amenity |
