On the 6th November 1976 Hull City Council conducted a wide-ranging tree survey of Hull General Cemetery. To build-on this information it is hoped* that the Friends of Hull General Cemetery (FoHGC) will conduct it’s own tree survey of the cemetery in 2020. Once the new survey has been conducted it will be possible to see how many of the original-survey trees remain and how the spread/variety of them has changed in the past 44 years.
*(Covid-19 lockdown permitting)
The Friends of Hull General Cemetery has created a xlsx spreadsheet using the 1976 survey results. Karen Towner our Wildlife Liaison Officer has added some (stock) images and a brief outline of the benefits to the eco-system of each tree. Please feel free to download this spreadsheet using the following link.
