It is growing from the base of the rear of the purifier building, which is the only surviving relic of the town's Gas Works. Faversham Creek Trust has secured a long lease from the owners, Morrisons, in return for restoring the building so that it can be used as The Maritime Heritage Apprentice Training Centre. Work has begun clearing the ivy and pigeon droppings and evicting the large pigeon population. I suspect the tree, which leans dangerously across Flood Lane and the opposite wall, will have to be cut down.
