Notes:

August 2009 – Michael Woolmer: This yew was first recorded for the Ancient Tree Hunt – tree 54179. Girth of 454cm at 150cm recorded.
2017 – Paul Wood: A remote site and although the chapel is gone it is regularly visited. The yew appeared to be growing well. There was much twiggy growth at about three feet all around the bole, which on its west side has a spine of white dead wood with a hollowing horseshoe forming behind. The foliage was deep green even in the bright spring sunshine. The smallest girth obtained was 15′ 3” (4.65m) at 6”.
