The Beale Arboretum

The Beale Arboretum was founded by Edward Beale in 1963, developed further by Trevor Beale and is now run by Andrew Beale with a staff team of three. There are over 800 species of trees from around the world, as well as two Plant Heritage National collections of Carpinus betulus (Hornbeam) and Taxodium (Swamp Cypress). Other impressive trees include a 250 year old Arbutus unedo (Strawberry tree), a 150 year old Cedrus atlantica (Atlantic cedar), Sequoia sempervirens (Coastal redwood), and Sequoiadendron giganteum (Giant Sequoia).
