Statement of Significance

Outstanding size

Located within the Moonah Reserve on the banks of the Barwon River and 20 metres in from the road, this tree appears to be the most outstanding specimen of the surrounding trees. It has the largest girth and spread of any on the Trust Register
The tree consists of 5 major trunks. Two trunks to the east and west have collapsed, leaving one central major and 3 other upright trunks. The collapsed limb now rests on ground.
A barrier may be of benefit as signs of damage are evident (2004).
