October 2015 – Tim Hills: Because of its proximity to the church, the yew’s branches have been systematically removed, creating a striking tree with many upright branches. Lateral branches start above a height of about 8′. Ivy at the time of the visit was thin. To avoid twigs its girth was measured between 1′ and 1′ 6” and 12′ 6” (381cm) was recorded.
