There is also a record of a yew described in the 1838 Arboretum and Fruticetum as ’30 years planted, it is 17 ft. high, the diameter of the head 26 ft’. Several small terraces lead from the house to the River Leet; on one of these are the remains of a Victorian roserie near the Bower, under an enormous yew. There has been no recent report of this tree.
