Northampton Buildings - save the cherry tree
Image: © HelenK Taken: 8 May 2012
Behind a couple of other trees on the left is a cherry tree, in the grounds of St. Andrew's School, which is currently threatened with being felled. There is a 'Save the Cherry Tree' poster on display in the window of the house on the right (as in many others in Northampton St.) [Update: The tree was spared as a result of this campaign] Note the broken-off remains of a doorway to a house which was destroyed by bombing in the Second World War.
