1999 Tim Hills: The yew was almost hidden behind ivy. It consists of a hollow shell growing close to a wall. It has one internal stem up against the bole. I recorded a girth of 15′ 6” (472cm) at the base of the tree.
2017 Paul Wood: A horseshoe hollow shaped tree with an internal stem. Covered in thick ivy which was removed to enable measurement. At the ground a girth of 16′ 9” (511cm) was recorded over a few pieces of thick ivy stems. Also measured at 2′ after much ivy removal, a girth of 16′ 5” (500cm) was recorded. It seemed evident that where the tree meets the wall, around the opening to its hollow, that a section of the tree was missing. This yew has undoubtedly been larger girthed in the past.
