Yews recorded: Ancient 4m-5m

Girth height: fallen tree
Tree sex: unspecified
Date of visit: 15-Jun-02
Source of earliest mention: 1658: The Yew-Trees of Britain and Ireland (1897) John Lowe
Notes:A fallen tree, but with much new healthy growth. It is very close to a building. The metal prop appears to have become more bent between 2008 and 2010, and raises the question of whether such a significant tree should be propped in a more professional manner, or be allowed to gently lower itself to the ground. Note also the mesh nailed over the cavity.
