This is one of several planted along a track laid for housing development just before WWI, along the boundary of Blackheath Common. The proposed development partly failed, because building on the common itself was prevented.
Further to the above. The housing development is called the Triggs Turner Estate, and it was developed in the early 1920's by a firm of solicitors in Guildford on the souther part of a large ancient wood called Lockner Holt. I'm not now sure if the tree and its companions (I counted another five) were planted just before or just after WWI.
