Thanks for your response mate.

 

Can you tell me how you recognise it as Ash, what are the identification features?

 

the texture and colour of the bark are the biggest clues, young ash saplings have a completely smooth grey bark which gradually transforms into a more fissured texture with a more golden tinge. I think those logs have come from a tree which had honey fungus before it came down, which is where the black lines in the timber come from.....or so I was told by an educated man!
