This yew tree is growing over the wall of Rose Terrace and is now growing over the pavement below head height. The leaves and berries of this tree are poisonous, and a lot of debris has continually fallen on the pavement, making the area extremely slippery in wet weather. The tree has been in this condition for a significant number of years.
