Woodnesborough

Tree ID: 4166

Yews recorded: Lost

Tree girth: No data

Girth height: not measured

Tree sex: unspecified

Date of visit: 21-May-13

Source of earliest mention: 1836: Mockett`s Journal

Notes:

The 3 European yews (as well as many Irish yews) are later than 1836. We would expect Mockett’s five large yews to be at least 12 feet in girth were they still here. Were they removed post 1836 to be replaced by the trees we see today?
