Giant Redwoods - February 2017 |
| One of the two Giant Redwoods in the Felstead Burial Ground appears to have suffered damage to its top. The first two visits to Felstead were made fairly late on Winter days so good photographs of the trees were not possible. However, during the visit in 2017, the setting sun produced a pleasing silhouette. |

| A bit of a drab day but it was good to see the trees are making progress after the damage they suffered many years earlier. |
