Coronation tree - Embankment Gardens

Inscription

This tree was planted to commemorate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, 1953.

Site: Coronation & bomb attack 7/7/05 (2 memorials)

WC2, Victoria Embankment Gardens

There is a third plaque (far right) but it's about some gardening prize which we didn't find sufficiently interesting. During the early part of 2008 all three plaques were renovated and re-laid on identical plinths.
