Located near the ruins of Crom Castle these yews are considered to be among the most impressive trees in Northern Ireland. The Crom Yews consist of a male and female that were planted close together in the 17th century. Its branches were supported by 32 brick pillars but were replaced by oak posts in 1833. Over time these posts were lost and the trees reverted back to a more natural form.
