Notes: The earliest part of the church is 13th century. Five of the six yews are on the south side of the church. The church is taking part in a 'Living Churchyard Project', complete with information boards. It is surprising that the oldest vegetation, probably coeval with the building, should be treated with such contempt and used as a rubbish dump.
