Notes: This location is Lower Baybridge Lane, travelling SW from Baybridge. The three yews described here are the largest in a line of yews on a raised bank at the the edge of a beech plantation. Although they grow only a few metres from the road there is no public access. In 2015 Peter Norton recorded young yews on Baybridge Lane, travelling SE from Baybridge. These form a yew tunnel about 240m long.
