Celebrating trees in Tottenham during the first

Tottenham Trees Tree ID walk
Bruce Castle Park
Friday 27th July 
7pm to 8:15pm


An Old Oak, a New Oak and Exotic Trees
There are no trees in the Antarctic, but we will show you an Antarctic Beech. Nettles are not trees, but we will look at a Nettle Tree. Tulips are bulbs, but we will admire a Tulip Tree. Just a taste of the exotic trees in Bruce Castle Park that we will encounter on our walk.  As to Tottenham's oldest Oak - we will stand by and hear about its age and events that have celebrated it and we'll contrast it with a recent celebratory planting of a young oak while finding out about the Tottenham Trees group.

We will end the walk at the Community-owned pub on the edge of the park, The Antwerp Arms, where food and drink will be on offer for those in need.

Led by Stephen Middleton

Meet in front of Bruce Castle Museum, Lordship Lane, London N17 8NU.

No Booking Required

In Tottenham seven trees were planted in a ring over 400 years ago for reasons lost in time; the Seven Sisters area and the underground station are named after them. The seven trees have been replanted a number of times, always by seven sisters. 

The Tottenham Trees logo, shown on the right, is a silhouette of the Bruce Castle Oak with the logo of the Charter for Trees, Woods and People launched in November 2017, on the 800th anniversary of the Royal Charter of the Forest.
