Plane trees along Hall Road
The trees growing here are London planes (Platanus x hispanica). The London plane is thought to be a hybrid of the oriental plane and the American plane, and was introduced into the UK from Spain in the 17th century. The bark of this tree flakes off > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6238904 exposing new bark underneath, and the faster the tree grows the more bark it sheds. This shedding is a form of self-cleansing which was considered to be important during the industrial revolution.
