Bromsberrow - Coneygreehill

1874 Gardeners Chronicle: “A monstrous, though almost denuded tree, from having been surrounded by a close belt of modern plantations, stands on the Coneygree Hills, Bromsberrow, Glos. This yew, which is curoiously ragged, with dwarf foliage round the base of the bole, is 24 feet in girth. It is shown in the transactions of the Malvern Naturalists Club.
1875 Gardeners Chronicle: “This magnificent tree which grows on the site of the old British camp that crowns Conygree Hill, is in the Parish of Bromsberrow. Above Bromsberrow church. Approx girth 25ft.
Edwin Lees The Forest and Chase of Malvern 1853-1870 “A very ancient and singular yew-tree now stands on the truncated summit of the oval artificial mount at Bromsberrow called Conygree Hill, and which looks like a huge dendroidal skeleton, with the baldness of its branches, almost devoid of verdure from being in a great degree shut out of light and air by a modern plantation that now surrounds the old tree, and robs it of the nutriment that its huge bole and numerous boughs demand. When measured in 1840 it was 25 feet in girth, and as one of the oldest trees about the Malvern Hills.”
