Statement of Significance

This tree is an example of Boddington's natural beauty and former industries. Consequently, it is of great aesthetic significance.

Physical Description

This jarrah tree is particularly large in comparison to other trees in the area. It has a large trunk and seems to be depleting at the mature parts of branches.

History

This is one of the trees in the area that have been retained after scores of trees were milled for the local timber industry. Trees this size, are now considered a rarity in this particular area. Jarrah trees take a long time to grow and are considered a superior wood for milling use. When the timber industry moved elsewhere, this tree would have been only semi-established.
