Oak? You are correct, bloke (and apologies for the mixup... ). Was that a guess or did you know?

I was expecting everyone to say birch but the leaves are definitely oak.

I'll have to go back tomorrow and take a picture with the leaves in view to prove what I think it is

so you're not even sure yourself what it is,...

hahahahahaha

twigs look a little oaky

Kind of takes the competition element out if you read the posts above yours

not sure about that at all ......bet it doesn't have acorns, bet it has those little round hard brown things on it.

Looks like silver birch, but you say no way hosai.!

Its was the discolouration of the bark, the eruptions of the the maturing bark, and the spiny twiglets.

Are there any oak trees around ? 'cause the leaves could have blown under this tree......I can't believe it's oak.doesn't look like any oak bark I've seen.......there are also some varieities of trees that have oak shaped leaves

On a limb, pedunculate, could you get a pic if an acorn cup if any are about.
