Plymstock

This is the larger of two yews, growing north of the church and seen here in the Google Earth images. In 1988 girth was 9′ 8” (295cm) at 3′ and 11′ (335cm) at 4′. This latter measurement was considered unreliable as the writer describes how “at 4′ so many branches have come out just below that it was impossible to measure the girth of the main trunk.”
A second smaller girthed yew grows south of the church. Its girth was 7′ 10” (239cm) at 3′ and 7′ 3” (221cm) at 4′.
In 1988 Allen Meredith aged tree 1 as 280 years and tree 2 as 150 years. Certificates with these estimated ages were sent to the church.
