Wowsers. That Birch is mega. I hope no one ever takes a saw to it.

[Ferguson system]

Found these while cleaning up windfallen.

 

30m tall Pinus sylvestris with chest dia.50-60 cm. straight as an arrow.

The second tree is a Picea abies with a bend.

[Caleb]

Found these in the lakes while on holiday the fir being the tallest tree in the lakes.

58.7m in 2011

It's quite a tree along with a whole load more huge trees!

I certainly wouldn't.

It would be a tension/compression nightmare!

Some amazing lime pollards I saw whilst quoting recently. Never seen any like this before. And a chestnut with some interesting branching, not sure what has caused this, photo is not great though

it was difficult to get a photo of this oak that shows its immensity, that is a huge chunk of wood.
