Twin trunk Giant Sequoia near the bridge
One of the best finds on this 2013 visit to North West Norfolk and to top it off we spoke to a very pleasant and helpful owner who directed us to the trees.
The setting is idylic and well worth a visit, please see the Lexham Estate website for information on the Garden, including its open days.
