Champion

Last week I told you about our Champion tree. A Champion tree is one that is either the tallest of its species or largest in girth. Ours is a Norway Maple  Acer platanoides and stands at the dizzy height of 36 metres, beating the previous record tree, which can be found in Scotland,  by a good couple of metres.

The Tallest Norway Maple in the land, and it can be found here at Prior Park
