Not Walnut

[Forest2Furniture]

I've had a call from a guy who has a fallen Walnut he wants me to mill.

However, looking at the photos he sent, it ain't Walnut!

 

You may be tempted but please DON"T post THAT youtube video !

Deffo not a pine

I'd go with pear maybe?

Looking at the top pic - Lime?

To add to the doubt my thought was a large hawthorn.

Walnut and Sweet Chestnut leaves are sort of similar although the nuts are obviously not. He may have just checked the leaf. Walnut bark is much smoother than that so not Walnut!

I’m going to further focus my stated species and suggest it is a red horse chestnut (smooth conkers that the owner may have mistaken for walnuts innit!)...
