Hi all.

I'm almost certain that this is a dead Hawthorn tree, but as always, am happy to be corrected.

I've photo'd some surrounding trees which, to me, look like live Hawthorn's apart from the Birch. The dead tree is shown in both 1st row pics, both 3rd row and with SAK. The pics in row 2 are live trees.

Cheers, Stu

Look like hawthorn to me looking at the long shots, I like how a tree bark evolves with age and can sometimes make you stop and question yourself. ash and wild service tree are a good example of this.

Thanks awarner

The last one I asked for help on was Ash. Both Ash and Hawthorn make good fire wood so am pretty pleased so far as I am using them / plan to use them in the wood burner at home.
