Beaman Oak The Beaman Oak was the largest white oak tree in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, standing in the front yard of a colonial era three-story house in the town of Lancaster. It was so named because Gamaliel Beaman had originally settled the spot in 1659. The oak became known as a prominent landmark in Central Massachusetts and is featured prominently on the seal of the Town of West Boylston. As of 1970, the Beaman Oak had a circumference at its base of 31 feet, a circumference five feet above the base of 19 feet, a height of 75 feet, and a spread of 75 feet. The oak's trunk was partially hollow towards the end of its life, and as such it was cut down after severe storm damage in 1989.〔Lancaster, MA Historic Preservation Plan http://www.ci.lancaster.ma.us/Pages/LancasterMA_CommDev/PLAN_HISTORIC_PRES_ELEMENT_VI.pdf〕 == References ==
