What is this?.

. Does anyone have an idea of what this is, I thought a type of elm, but really not sure

I would say Elm, when buds burst it can be misleading. Flowers and bark look right though.

Even in the heart of the DeD control zone. I've found huge wild elms. Must be a case that the zombie beetles never sniffed em.

I think its just thin cambium in some mature trees, as found in the immature.

FYI DED control zone is the Dutch elm disease control zone in Sussex. It's quite rare to see trees like this standing alone as DED normally gets them by the time they are over a certain size. Sorry :-D was being a bit Sussex.
