Part of a green corridor created probably in the 1870s, stretching from the Arboretum round the north east of the City to St Ann's. Other parts still retain the mature trees planted at the inception, but the age of trees along here suggests that the originals were elms which succumbed to the Dutch Elm Disease disaster of the late 70s.
