Reason for nomination:
This tree has been nominated three times. "This Oak is a particularly well shaped specimen and gives me pleasure as I walk past on the adjoining footpath". Mr and Mrs VF Dowsett. "I am now sixty four years old and I remember this tree being planted as it was on my route to the old Theydon Bois Primary School. I still walk past this tree daily and believe it to be a perfect example of an English Oak." Graham Law. "This oak has grown evenly in all directions and is now a "textbook" specimen of some maturity. It is in a postition where it could continue to grow without hinderance as the site is well watered by a nearby watercourse and the root run is unlikely to be obstructed. The land being owned by the City of London affords it a high degree of protection." Peter Newton.
