Grange-over-Sands - Holker Hall (Cumbria)

Wellingtonia (Sequoiadendron giganteum)

Three Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens)

Holker Hall is among the locations of several Redwoods in Cumbria for which Nick kindly sent us details. He says; "This specimen of a Wellingtonia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) is in the formal garden of Holker Hall. N 54° 11.353 W 002° 58.943" and "Three Coast Redwoods stand together in the park lands of Holker Hall. N 54° 11.476 W 002° 59.208" The only point I would make is that the shape of these three trees is more like that of a Giant Redwood than a Coast Redwood so if someone can verify this please contact us. * * * Update - April 2019 * * *

Thanks to Brian who wrote to say "I found a photo of one of these 3 trees at Holker Hall with my Border Terrier Scout . Definitely not sempervirens." The photograph was taken last year and verifies my suspicions, these two types Redwoods can be confused unless you can get up close, as your Scout discovered!
