  • Wiltshire Yews an Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Ebble Valley
    Wiltshire Yews An Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Ebble Valley By Peter Norton 1 Introduction: This report is the second of five observations of churchyard yews in and around the rivers Wylye, Ebble, Nadder and Bourne that converge with the Salisbury/Hampshire Avon as it flows through the Salisbury area. The Ebble is a fine chalk stream rising to the east of Berwick St John and just above the village of Alvediston, some twelve miles to the west of Salisbury and then converging with the Avon two miles south of Salisbury at Bodenham. Its major tributary the Chalke rises in Bowerchalke and converges with the Ebble at Mount Sorrel in Broad Chalke. All of the villages along this route were included, with thirteen churchyards visited. Of these eleven contained yew trees, and although many of those mentioned are small in stature compared to some of the giants already recorded within the Yew Gazetteer, it was felt that as time progresses, these younger trees will become our future giants for the next generations of yew enthusiasts. A total of twenty seven trees were noted at these sites of which eighteen had measurements recorded. (See graph below which has been grouped by girth and does not include any estimated* values.) Imperial measurements were taken during the recording exercise and converted to Metric. Please note that in multiple individual tree measurements only the lowest to the root/ground was used for this graph. Measured Yew Trees by Girth Range 10 s e e r t f o r e b m 5 u N 0 0.5M 1.0M 1.5M 2.0M 2.5M 3.0M 3.5M 4.0M 4.5M 5.0M to to to to to to to to to to 1.0M 1.5M 2.0M 2.5M 3.0M 3.5M 4.0M 4.5M 5.0M 0.0M Where Irish Yews were significant in number at the documented churchyards, they are also included in this report.

Yet sometimes taking the path less trodden can have its own memorable rewards, especially in a wonderful county with a rich history like ours. And that’s the gist of our feature on page 36 of this issue – Wiltshire’s Hidden Gems. Whether it’s an exquisite ancient earthworks like Figsbury Ring or a romantic ruin such as Old Wardour Castle (left) there’s something special round every corner. We also profile the artist Henry Lamb who spent most of his later years with his family in Coombe Bissett. An important 20th-century figurative painter, and co-founder of the Camden Town Group, Lamb is perhaps less well-known than some of his contemporaries, but a major exhibition of his work at the Salisbury Museum sets out to put that right. See our feature on page 24. Elsewhere in the magazine, the Wilsons team shares its insights with you on a number of legal matters. First, we take a look at the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and how it is giving us the opportunity to take control of our own personal data (p.8).
