Pollard Black Mulberry near to Hole no 7 on Wanstead golf course. There is a younger one at Hole 18. The golf course is on the site of the walled kitchen garden of the 17th century Wanstead Hall, but could be a later planting,, after the Hall was demolished and replaced by Wanstead House in 1722. NOTE: The tree suffered damage in the dry hot weather of July-August 2020 and the trunk has split. The fallen section is still connected to the root system and so should continue to grow in its new recumbent position.
