The yew relates to a yew tree that stood in the grounds of Crookston Castle in Pollok, Glasgow. This was the family home to Lord Darnley's branch of the Stewart family. It is believed that Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley concluded their agreement of marriage beneath this tree. The tree was felled in 1816.
