Wandered through Lincoln’s Inn early last year and was struct dumb by the hundred-year- old trees draped in mesh. I’d never seen it before, but apparently it’s something that happens quite often…

I thought this was going to be a public modern art display. Which would be cool.

Yes, with some strange title beneath it, no doubt.

This is what I thought, but then I remembered I was in one of the most exclusive estates in London, with everything from the doors and their handles, to the roofs being listed. It seemed unlikely to be art, aha.

Is it to protect it from a migrant pest?

I believe so, or to protect the buildings from falling branches in bad weather.

I’ve heard of this too, now that you mention it, but I’ve not seen it in person before.
I adore the vibrancy of that blue mesh. It really pops. Looks almost animated against everything else.

It just struck me dumb when I saw it, haha. I’d seen it in orchards before, when they’re trying to collect apples, or protect the fruit from insects, but never on a tree this large in a place so unexpected.
