An ancient Yew tree in Overton-on-Dee churchyard
This particular Yew tree may well be around 2,000 years old. (Let's assume 2012 for sake of convenience). The twenty-one Yews in the churchyard are all classed as ancient, except one planted by our present Queen on a visit in the last few years. The Yews are of course one of 'the Seven Wonders of Wales.'
