Legerwood Memorial Trees

Northeast chainsaw sculptor Eddie Freeman is sculpturing the trees at Legerwood. The trees were planted to honour World War 1 soldiers who came from the area. The tress grew to a dangerous height and needed to be lopped, leaving the Legerwood community to decide how to preserve the memorial of the soldiers.

In an innovative solution, Mr Freeman was asked to carve each of the remaining trunks to represent the men they honoured. Work is hoping to be completed by July 2005, this depends on the generosity of the community with donations.

Take a tour to Legerwood and have a look at these fantastic memorials.

The Train Master The fourth and fifth trees at Legerwood have been completed- No 6- with all of the large limbs is taking shape.
