Notes:

September 2005 – Tim Hills: 357 years old at the time of writing, this yew girthed 11′ 9” at 1′ and 12′ 3” at 4′ in 2005. Its dipping branches form a fine circle around the tree. The ground is higher on the church side and here the bole is more gnarled as it recovers from the removal of branches that would have grown too close to the building.
