  6. on a recent visit to wales,i stumbled across this old timer...it,s the langernyw yew.it has been estimated at between 4 to 5,000 years old..it is wales,oldest living thing and possibly europes. although it has lost it,s centre many years ago,it is very much alive.sitting here i had the greatest respect for something that has occupied the the same position for so very long......would appreciate any pictures of ancient trees you may have seen...although our industry requires us to remove dead,dying or dangerous trees...i reckon the preservation of a living monument that has the potential to way outlive us is a good thing.....................
