The one on The A20.  I thought it was Lee High Road but it is Eltham Road.

 

I heard one of the locals coming out of the council flats behind it...  moaning about the leaves it drops, they called it a f’ing tree.  Must be a new species discovered by chav Victorians

The low branches can probably be attributed to its location, no competition for light so no reason to not have lower branches from the start.

There's an avenue of redwoods  (wellingtonia) at Bearwood college, google picture:bearwood.jpeg.82611c8dee37cde96430b4ea7868e133.jpeg

 

That appear to have suckers. Furnish is down to the ground as they have always been open grown.

 

The Forester, Jim now probably long gone, thought they had been transplanted as  semi mature feathered trees and the lower branches had taken root, possibly because they were pegged to the ground  instead of being staked.
