Barbirolli tree

Inscription

In memory of Sir John Barbirolli, C. H.

Site: Barbirolli tree (1 memorial)

WC1, Tavistock Square Gardens

We were alerted to the existence of this tree, and its vandalisation, in June 2016, by an article in Marchmont News, from where comes the photo of the broken tree. A few days later we photoed the replacement cone. May 2017: the cone has gone, but still no tree.
