Having worked in Buriton House, a good number of years, I have watched that gingko biloba grow from a tree just to the mid window height of the upper floor. We had bird feeders in it. Drawing board work can get stressful.

Looking out of the window we could see first hand that one of its descendants was still surviving, despite its location next to the road.
