The male grows SSW of the church. A large hollow tree which has fallen in two stages. Photo 1 shows both fallen sections. That on the left (is also seen in photo 2) split and fell recently. That on the right and in photo 3 possibly fell more than a century ago. Girth around the large fallen section alone is above 22′, showing that this was once a very large girthed yew. Around both pieces girth was about 27′.
