In England, the Common Yew (Taxus baccata, also known as English Yew) is
often found in churchyards. It is sometimes suggested that these are
placed there as a symbol of long life or trees of death, and some are
likely to be over 3,000 years old. It is also suggested that yew trees
may have a pre-Christian association with old pagan holy sites, and the
Christian church found it expedient to use and take over existing
sites. Another explanation is that the poisonous berries and foliage
discourage farmers and drovers from letting their animals wander into
the burial grounds. The yew tree is a frequent symbol in the Christian
poetry of T.S. Eliot, especially his Four Quartets.
