  • I called it the Pulpit Yew for obvious reasons, research continues locally, it may already have a local name, update if necessary.

  • It is known by some locally to be one of the 'Seven Wonders of Wales'.

  • Dowsing for energy 'Ley lines' revealed this church to be at the convergence of two energy lines, indicating a pre-christian interest.
