Abstract
- Chelsea has an unusually large number of veteran mulberry trees for a London borough (around 25 at the last count). And, while they are not all as old as they look, many have direct links to Chelsea's history, including the Tudor estates of Thomas More and Henry VIll, a short-lived eighteenth century silk farm, and the 1800s headquarters of a Moravian religious community.
