Sherborne - Long Street (Dorset) |
The owner of the Giant Sequoia in Sherborne (left hand photograph) was interested to learn about redwoods and the dimensions of his tree. Thanks to him for his time and also to the helpful house painter for letting us know that there is another Giant Sequoia in the neighbouring garden (right hand photograph). |
