Perhaps they didn't know it was to be saved for milling, it could have been a builder who knew no better.

Really? Im no expert (by a long long shot) but found Lime to be far more paler, at least up here. I agree on the bark though. Pics on the laptop are much easier to scrutinize than the phone.

You could be right, just throwing it out there, the bark of lime is oak like so can be passed off to the unwary by the unscrupulous.

 

Need to smell the wood, and feel the weight and see the buds to be sure.

Il get the chance to cut a few and see what the  nose says, mixed load of hardwood at sensible money so even for firewood it’s an ok deal. I’m starting to see you in a new light Mick away from the grief of Brexit or Covid.

If you zoom in the bud does look like a thumb nail.
