Notes:

October 2015 – Tim Hills: The most westerly of the pair. Above its 8′ high bole rise many thick branches. A gap on its east side shows that hollowing is taking place. A fallen branch on the east side leans and comes to rest in tree 2. Girth over thick ivy was 14′ 10” (452cm) at 2′ and 16′ 4” (498cm) at 4′.
