Ficus benghalensis - Indian Banyan, Norfolk Island

This tree is located on Bullocks Hut Rd, Norfolk Island as far as I recall and must have been planted in the late convict era perhaps. There is an even larger one at the Norfolk Island Airport with perhaps a similar history. This species is not a native tree of Australia although it was planted in Brisbane at New Farm for example, possibly also during the convict era.
