A Church was built in centuries past
Where the ancient yew tree grows
'Twas there the groom walked down the aisle
To wed the fair Ashbrittle Rose
James Giles and Jane Rose were wed on 5 April 1815 in Ashbrittle, Somerset. The Yew Tree overlooking the Church is said to be England's oldest, at 3,000 years of age.
It would have overlooked my ancestors baptisms, marriages and deaths since the Church was built there in the 15th century.
