Notes:

August 2000 – Tim Hills: One of the pair of yews due north of the church and on the left when approaching from the church. Its large central stem appears to have broken off at about 12′. Girth of 14′ 10” (452cm) at 2′ recorded.
October 2013 – Tim Hills: The tree seems to be getting ever closer to touching the shed, which was erected in 1986. The gap is now only a few inches. Growth is all around an old central stem. The lowest girth obtainable was 14′ 6” (442cm) . Comparative readings are not possible because of changes to the ground level.
