1930: Edgar Thurston stated that ‘There are two yews in Mylor churchyard. The larger of trees in Mylor measures 10ft 2ins.’ It has not been possible to check the origin of this information.
2012: Girth of 372cm (12′ 2½”) was recorded just below old branches. Lower and more recent branches have been cut back. Note the year 1902 carved into one of these cuts. The trunk is solid and some deadwood in the crown was noted.
