Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum

A job well done

It's always sad to say goodbye to a big old tree like the oak we felled earlier this week near to the restaurant.

A big well done goes to the Tree Team for the extremely professional way in which the felling of this tree was safely undertaken.

This was a well organised operation, with great care taken to ensure no damage to either buildings or people!

The team counted the annual growth rings as best they could and estimate that the tree was around 200 years old.

Watch this space to see another aspect of our ever evolving landscape take shape.
