Preserved oak now lost
The planners did make an effort to retain a good number of specimen oaks on the new development of the St Peter's estate; this is one of the best of them.
Sadly this tree suffered a catastrophic failure when almost half blew down in a gale; it was hollow and declared unsafe, thus had to be felled. A sapling oak has been planted to replace it.

Bridleway soon to be revived
This long suffering oak must have stood beside the right of way shown on an old OS map as running from the bath road to Norton before the railway was built.

Preserved Oak before the houses came
Impossible to recreate this picture now unless I intrude on someone's property but good to know that the planning worked and this tree lives on despite having lost its view north over Worcester.

Old oak
Another venerable oak that once would have stood beside the right of way from the Bath road to Norton preserved in the St Peters development but obliterated by the A4440. Now due to be reinstated by the installation of a bridleway bridge.
