Notes:

May 1997 – Graham Wilkinson:
(A) Male – 15′ 8″ (478cm) at base and 14′ 7″ (444.5cm) at 3′. An imposing tree, with some hollowing on the west side and branching from about 10′.
(B) Female – 12′ 7″ (384cm) at 3′, 12′ 4½” (377cm) at base. Large tree, branching from around 10′. Contemporary companion of tree A.
(C) Female – 9′ 6″ at base, with two-trunk split soon after. It perches precariously on the west side of its raised bed and appears to be missing some balancing mass to the east. It may have been much larger at one time.
(D) A much younger and smaller yew.
