Dave Lofthouse Tree Walk published

Dave Lofthouse worked for Merton Council for 30 years as Tree Officer and then Arboricultural Manager. He lived at The Canons house. Dave added many new trees and developed an arboretum. It has been named in his memory as the Lofthouse Canons Arboretum.

Our Dave Lofthouse Tree Walk is the ideal way to explore the astonishing, varied and unique arboretum that is Dave’s legacy.
