Notes:

In 1848 a ‘very large yew-tree’ was described; a similar description appeared in 1895. By 1911 ‘the ancient yew tree on the south side is now dead, but the trunk and branches remain with a picturesque covering of ivy’. This painting by James Howe Carse is dated 1860 and almost certainly shows the old yew.
