Can anyone identify this plant please?

Isle of Wight, United Kingdom Gb

A coniferous tree growing in our local Botanics in Ventnor Isle of Wight. There is not too much I can say about it really apart from the structure was amazing. I hope the photo helps

Hi NP, yes I think they must be related in some way as the name Araucaria suggests, the monkey puzzle is Araucaria araucana

Norfolk Pine is not hardy in most of the UK but favoured places like Cornwall and the Isle of Wight may get away with it
