This majestic old London Plane tree fell on a busy day in April, narrowly missing Paul McCartney’s offices. Thankfully nobody was hurt.

We received the fallen trunk from Westminster Council and will be milling it into several tonnes of beautiful hardwood timber – which beats turning it into firewood (that's what usually happens to London trees sadly).

The timber should be ready early 2023. We'd love to see it used in a home or business close by.
