Lawson Cyprus estimated age

[Steven P]

Had a conversation earlier, a Lawson Cyprus I knew when I was younger, damaged in the storms so taken down this week.... question was how old do you think it was - 25m high and about 4m girth.. the little calculator I had didn't go to that size though.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Minimum age is 75

 

 

A good climbing tree.

Come on, you can't blueball us here. Pics or it didn't happen. 

 

Is it visible on streetview? 

[Steven P]

Whoops - I'd be the first to ask for a photo too if it helps others.

 

It's this fella in the middle, was. Reckoned it was 25m to the top - the trees around it are all mature for example sycamore and so on. 4m at ground level, a little less at chest height.

 

I'll grab a couple of photos tomorrow of work in progress.

They're going to, but interested also to see what the opinion on here might be too

I’ll play.

 

85.

Why. Minimum of 75 years. 

I would say less then that 

[Stere]

76

[sime42]

60 years old.

77 - If it has to be older than 75. 

65 is what I would have guessed otherwise.
