On 16th May 2024 Ed very kindly made time to walk the volunteers through an examination of the trees in Sidmouth cemetery, which of course form part of the Sidmouth Arboretum.

This is the tree map taken from their website and we acknowledge their copyright. If you click this map it will take you to their page where you can find out more about the trees.

Below are some photographs taken on the day of the walk
