| General Notes:

Fisher Avenue features a long avenue of plane trees, with approximately 54 substantial specimens lining both sides of the street. The trees are uniformly tall and create a strong, cohesive streetscape presence.
Council records indicate the avenue was planted in May 1952 and note that several London plane trees are included among the plantings. Early images suggest the trees may have been maintained as pollards for a period, indicating a past regime of formal management. (Macdonald, M., 2026).
