Statement of Significance
Two prominent trees with well-rounded canopies. Their size, location and habit are their major feature and make a significant contribution to the landscape. Unfortunately, road widening and the construction of a path around the southern tree has caused a loss of vigour. Both trees have a well-established crown although they would greatly benefit from a management program.
