This great tree had a severe trim just over three years ago and has never recovered to its former glory. Before it was lopped by tree surgeons it was almost half as large again as it is now. It was originally planted in the open lands of Worlingham Park many years ago before the road in which it stands (Park Drive) was built and lined with houses. More development has since taken place and the latest, built in the late 1970s was named Hornbeam Close, so called because it was thought for many years that it was a hornbeam.
