The ancient tree has been standing guard over the tiny settlement of Gyfelia, which is close to Ruabon in the Clwyd South constituency of MP Simon Baynes.
Mr Baynes visited Neil and Georgina Hawkey at their home early in Febraury to see the tree in their garden and give his support to them getting a tree preservation order on it.
