The Bricked Up Tree On The Green.

A Memory of Havering-atte-Bower.

I was born at "Elmwood" in the village in 1941 and remember the tree on the corner, the 175 bus used to give it a wide berth to get round the corner. It was a huge tree with bricks inside to hold it together. Looking at pictures of the village today, it has changed a lot, my grandparents, the dePonts, lived in the cottages called Elizabeth row. I now reside in Queensland and am 74 and retired. John Kilby
