Notes:

Tim Hills – October 2000: Girths of 13′ 2” (401cm) at 1′ and 13′ 10” (422cm) at 4′ 6” recorded. Above this height it bulges with twiggy growth. There was evidence of much burrowing beneath. Though it gave the impression of great solidity it was obviously hollow inside. A low tree, height 25’/30′.
2010 – Peter Norton: Three yews are found in this churchyard. The one recorded here comprises a short bole that once had five main branches, of which three have since been removed. Girth of 13′ 5” (409cm) at 1′, 13′ 0” (396cm) at 2′ and 13′ 6” ((411cm) at 3′. The tree is at 51.561825,-1.851133.
