The impressive building that is Culford School is complimented by a magnificent row of Giant Redwoods. One has been reduced to a stump and one has had to be cut part of the way down, but the rest are in superb condition. A pleasant surprise was finding three young Wellingtonia, one with a plaque that reads "In loving memory of Peter Morgan (1977 - 1995) who so enjoyed living in Culford Park".
