1 gen 1674 anni - yew

Descrizione:

The yew is commemorated in a number of Yorkshire place-names, for example Ewden and The Yews in Bradfield parish. Documentary references to the tree itself are quite scarce but it had a variety of uses: 1577 <i>I ... bequithe to Mr Mathew Nevell ij large bowes of ewe,</i> Birstall (Sheard342); 1599 <i>Item one payre of ewe naves with certayne wayne timbre ploughe tymber sawn bordes pannell bordes & lattes</i>, Rawmarsh (TWH16/162); 1636 <i>one little yew table, vs</i>, Allerton near Bradford (LRS1/88). The wood was certainly grown for ornament: 1674 <i>4 view trees</i> [sic] <i>set about my house Sept. 1</i>, Northowram (OH3/213). See wirethorn.
