Anderson Reserve - Physical Description 1
The Anderson Reserve in Linda Street, Coburg contains a number of large trees contemporary with the early history of the park. A path running from Linda Street to White Street follows the alignment of a number of large trees, and may be an original access route through the park. The site is dominated by a large number of Kurrajongs (Brachychiton populneus) scattered throughout the park and along the northern boundary. A single Illawarra Flame Tree (Brachychiton acerifolius) is located near the White Street entrance.
Potential Threats:
Failure to replace senescent trees with the same species. Obscuring the form of the significant trees through planting in the gaps between trees.Anderson Reserve - Physical Conditions
