Notes:

1983 – Reg Wheeler: Three stems from a wide base of 19′ 10” girth. Individual stems measured at 2′ 6” were 10′ 3”, 8′ 9” and 5′ 4”.
September 2004 – Tim Hills: Growing SSE, this appears to be a yew of 3 leaning fragments, two of which are seen in the photograph. If this is so the tree would be considerably older than the site. Girth of 19′ 11” at 1′. Further research is necessary.
