Statement of Significance

An outstanding specimen tree in the grounds of Anzac Hostel, 'Kamesburgh', built in 1874. The tree has weeping branches, that arch down. It has a dull green colour during the summer, but in Autumn turns yellow. As the tree loses its leaves, the branches are exposed, giving it a nice appearance during the Winter.
