Crowhurst Yew Tree

Highlight • Historical Site

This massive, hollow yew tree stands guard over St Georges churchyard in Crowhurst and is thought to be some 4000 years old. The first record of its girth comes in a parish note of 1630, when it was measured at 30 feet (9.1m). John Evelyn in 1664 recorded that there was a yew “in the churchyward of Crowhurst in the county of Surrey, which I am told is ten yards in compass”, but modern measurement states 34 feet. Further recorded by John Aubrey in his Natural History & Antiquities Of The County Of Surrey (1718/1719) the yew boasts a hollow interior space of about 6 feet, with a doorway and wooden door.

Hever Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A very quiet little country lane surrounded by fields that roughly follows the route of the River Eden between Edenbridge and Hever. Great to avoid the traffic around Edenbridge.
