Abstract:		 Two ex situ trunks had been retained from the western section of an old yew hedge. A subsection of each trunk was cut to retain rings as close to the pith as possible and out to the bark. One radius was found to have 218 rings, the other 215 rings. Comparisons between the measured series from the different trunk sections suggested that they were most likely from the same tree, even though they were expected to represent two different trees. Few rings were lost from near the pith, and the trees were most likely planted around AD 1780-1800, making them younger than the map evidence for a hedge being present in AD 1717.
