50 favourite trees of the Epping Forest district

The 50 favourite trees project was developed and completed in 2007 by Countrycare and our Trees and Landscape team. We asked residents to tell us about the trees that they thought made life just that little bit better and to explain why.

About the project

We know the trees work very hard for us – for our health, for our wellbeing, for biodiversity and for the appearance of our towns, villages and countryside. But trees also matter to us for more personal reasons. It may be because of a historical or family connection, their location, or their size or appearance.
