There were 5 mature trees here 🌳 as high as the Kilburn building on the left. They were needlessly #felled for the Oxford Road transformation by @officialoum & @officialtfgm in February 2016 #uomtrees

This makes me angry and sad. There have been empty promises about trees being "replaced" with "semi-mature trees" which will look really good in about 30 years time.... Shame on you|!

 

My guess is they'll be replaced with bus stop and cycle lane. Yay! Much more visually appealing.

 

It used to look like this in summer

Now we can only console ourselves with CGI trees instead:
