Strangest Oak bark I have ever seen. The diamond marks are usually an indicator of Goat Willow.
Nice test though.

Woah, loads of questions! The leaves were still attached to the tree, so it's not a goat willow. Could well be a pedunculate oak. I'll post more pictures tomorrow...
That was what I wanted people to guess but it's an oak...
Here's the same tree, a bit further away:
Further away still:

I hope those are proof enough of oaken status!
Not that I saw but I wasn't looking for them - are you still not convinced or are you trying to pin down oak species?
Yeah just between English and sessile oak for me dude,
the sessil has little or no stalk on the acorn cup
where as the english has stalk(most of the time)
I find It can be easier to use these to narrow it down rather than the leaves as they can look similar in these two,
