Source of earliest mention: T.Dugdale 1830

Notes:

2000: Numerous low branches dipping to the ground making measurement impossible. Drying grasses stored beneath the tree. Closer inspection revealed a hollow shell, with about three quarters of the bole remaining. This was guarded by brambles. It grows east of the church and measured no more than 13′ 6″ (411cm) at 1′.
2023: Tree and area around it looking very different from 2000.
