Thanks all, I wasnt expecting a hazel to have such a solid trunk... but now Im convinced it is a Turkish hazel.
-
No nuts evident. I initially rules out corylus as Im only familiar with the shrub like bole of common hazel, and the rough leaves, but now I see that Turkish hazel has a solid trunk. It seems to fit the bill, thanks.

Been puzzling over this one last few weeks. Its a tree about 6m tall, spreading type, in a public place, not garden. Trunk approx 1 metre in diameter. No evidence of any fruit or any distinctive foliage. Leaves shiny on top, light hairs on underside. Leaves fairly coarsely toothed, either blunt or a point at top. Initial thoughts were alder, poplar or maybe lime. Dont think it can be maple, elm, hazel or pear due to the bole and/or leaves. Any help please, may be obvious to some... Photos were taken today. Thanks

Looks like Antarctic Beech to me, Nothofagus antarctic.

Visited some woods in Swindon at weekend. I think there are three, possibly four distinct species of Elm, all immature trees, but nice to see all the same, as follows (I Think)... (1) Ulmus Minor - Smooth Leaved Elm. (2) Ulmus x Hollandica - Dutch Elm. (3) Ulmus Glabra - Wych Elm. The other species was a hybrid I couldnt guess at.

Juniper?
-
Cryptomeria?
-
Thuja?

Thanks, Another very feasible option, Ill keep my eye on it and see how it turns in the autumn.
-
Many Thanks, I was looking thinking Manna, but Collins book stated that the bark was smooth. The leaves and seeds do look very similar in Collins as do the leaves in Coombs.

oponions should have been opinions (sic.)
-
No idea on this one, leaves are pinnate and very seeds similar to that of an ash (except for the pinkish colouring). Leaves however are not like any fraxinus in my books, and bark seems more fissured. Dont think its sorbus(rowan) walnut, hickory, wingnut either. Any ideas?
-
Cockspur thorn also has thorns (nasty ones), and different shaped leaves.
-
Ulmus procera or ulmus minor looking at the asymmetry of the leaves. Presence of suckers at base may provide a clue.

Looks like prunus to me - cherry. -
David I havent seen many 'in the wild' and it is always nice to see the WST, Ive also seen some in Westonbirt and Exmouth and a few dotted around Southampton. Regards

Hi, Sorbus in pics 1,2 are in New Forest at Rhinefield, nr Lyndhurst. Some lovely trees there. There are an arrray of Rowan, Whitebeam and Service Trees, plus hybrid. Close to the Tall Trees Trail. The Cornus (Dogwood) is in Swindon. Regards.
-
Maybe (2) is Swedish Whitebeam x Rowan. Both Sorbus anyway.
-
1. Service Tree 2. Bastard Service Tree (Service x Rowan). 3. Cornus 'Norman Haddon'

Many thanks, was toying with Elder but leaves looked different

Bournemouth upper gardens. An interesting leaf arrangement, and Im not familiar with the species. A young tree, the trunk is in the background, couldnt get any other photos as the tree was amongst some privet and rhodadendron. Any suggestions?
-
I think its Malus. May be Pillar Apple -tschonoskii based on leaf shape.
-
Cant be a spruce if the needles are flat. Looks like a pacific silver fir to me or similar. Abies Amabilis?
-
Needles look flat more like a fir. Spruce needles square in cross section.
-
Friend suggested it may be Pterocarya fraxinifolia, caucasian wingnut.
