Notes:February 1999 – Tim Hills: The most significant yew is this shapely fragmented yew surrounded by younger trees which have layered from it. 22′ 4” at the ground.
2013 – Peter Norton: The fragmented female has branch layered with six successful young trees of which the largest was 6′ 11” in girth. Two of these have layered for a second time, and since nobody has ‘tidied up’, the living link to the parent tree is quite visible. Girth incorporating both ground and root crown, was 23′ 1” (704cm). It is found at TQ0140882382.
