In 1774 Samuel Johnson toured North Wales with Hester Thrale. He visited Gwaenynog Hall in Denbigh, home of John Myddleton, who erected a monument to the visit of the literary titan. Johnson was not impressed: in a 1777 letter to Mrs Thrale he wrote, 'Mr Myddleton’s erection of an urn looks like an invention to bury me alive; I would as willingly see my friend, however benevolent and hospitable, quietly inured. Let him think, for the present, of some more acceptable memorial'.

The tree had a bad reputation and was known as 'The Hollow Oak of the Demons' (Derwen Ceubren yr Ellyll). According to Pennant it was 400 years old and twenty-eight feet in circumference. A sundial with an inscription marks the spot it once stood at Nannau House.
