Notes:

March 2003 – Tim Hills: The fine male has a large leading branch with much growth around and associated with it. Its appearance suggests hollow spaces within.
Girth at the ground was 18′ 8” (569cm), allowing the tape to ride over the larger roots.
It was measured at the height of the bench top as 14′ 11” (455cm) both in 2003 and 2014.
