Having moved out of London in the late 1960`s we were very glad to find a nice big tree near to our house.
Sadly in June/July of 2009, the tree was to be demolished, slowly the poor old thing came down. It had gone rotten, so a landmark in Great Dell Welwyn Garden City was no more!

One of Louis de Soissons’ main ideas in WGC was to keep as many large, mature trees as possible. This certainly contributed to the town being such a pleasant place to walk round and live in.
Marian, so sorry about the felling of this tree, what type of tree was it?
