The tree is no longer there

From the source

Churchyard landmark at St Pancras Old Church, where gravestones were arranged around an ash tree during railway works associated with Thomas Hardy’s time in London. Best as a short literary-history detour.

St Pancras Old Church says the churchyard is open daily until dusk. The Hardy Tree sits within the churchyard rather than operating as a separately staffed attraction.
