Best in autumn: the dawn redwood is deciduous, and its foliage turns a foxy copper-red before falling — often the finest time to visit.

About this place

Compiled from the listed sources below — not a first-hand account.

Dudmaston is a National Trust estate in Shropshire, a wooded parkland of pools, gardens and ornamental conifer planting around a 17th-century house. Its estate agent Geoffrey Wolryche-Whitmore was among the first in England to raise dawn redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) from the 1948 seed distribution that followed the species' rediscovery in China, and giant sequoia and coast redwood also grow among the estate's trees. Paid admission (free to National Trust members).
