About

The Street Tree is a blog by Paul Wood – this is me on the hunt for Strawberry trees in County Kerry, Ireland.

I’m the author of London’s Street Trees: A Field Guide to the Urban Forest, originally published in 2017 with a second edition in 2020, London is a Forest, first published in 2019 with a second edition in 2022, and London Tree Walks published in 2020. I’m also the editor of The Great Trees of London Map.

Over the past two years I’ve been travelling around Britain and Ireland researching my next book. Read more about my Great Urban Trees of Britain and Ireland project.

If you want to know more about me, you could read this interview with Amanda Tuke.

Maybe we could collaborate on tree-related projects, have a look at this page.
