March 2002 – Tim Hills: No 4 on the plan is a thick columnar tree retaining its girth to about 18′, at which height it has been cut off. The side facing the path appeared dead, but there was much new growth on the other sections of the tree. Girth was 11′ 4” ((345cm) at 4′.
2011 – Peter Norton: Girths of 11′ 11” (363cm) at 1′ and 11′ 7” ((353cm) at 2′. The tree is seen at the front right in the photograph.
