Alt text: A picture of an older smiling white man with long curly white hair is holding his jacket open, revealing a vest, tie and a gold medal around his neck. The text reads: In 2013, Brian May of Queen bought 157 acres of land that was about to be developed into buildings. He planted trees with the help of volunteers and restored it into a thriving woodland. The area is called "May's Woodland" and has over 100,000 trees growing there.

Good question but it turns out it is not occupying the kind of location you suggested. Being a physicist he probably considered this Map

I'm not stating whether he considered it or not, but Brian May being good at one thing (physics) doesn't mean he's good at other things.
