Notes:

The largest of three yews leans, so that on one side a sizeable root has been pulled above the ground. All around the tree were signs of the removal of many branches. Foliage was generally sparse. Girth was 12′ 2” (371cm) at about 1′.
East of the church is a scrappy young female yew.
Due north of the church is a many branched tree that could well be 10’/12′ in girth.
