Hi

 

I took down this Scot's Pine yesterday. The ground at the base was concave. Another one, which looked similar inside, came down in a storm a few weeks ago, snapped about 3 foot from the ground. Any idea what it is? Customer has 11 more which are bigger and also closer to their house. There are cracks appearing on some of them at the base.

It looks like made up ground and mechanical damage from earth moving machinery many years ago
