Summary[edit]

Description
English: Avenue of Remembrance This avenue is part of the old 1930’s Colchester by-pass. It was planted in memory of the men of Colchester who were killed in WW1. It is a true picture in blossom time and autumn. As late as the mid-1960’s each tree had a plaque commemorating the clubs and societies who planted the individual trees. A couple of years ago there was a proposal by the Borough to fell all the trees on one side of the Avenue to put in a park & Ride Bus Lane. This crass act of disrespect was savaged by the people of the town. Now the Council says it is “committed” to preserving the trees. It is replacing dead and dying trees with semi mature replacements.
