Thanks, forgot I used a bit from another tree to rest the Beech (?) trunk on, yep, that bit is likely Oak.

No 1 Beech, no 2 I'd say some type of plum tree

The trunk in pic 2 is maybe a couple ft in diameter at the base, would a plum be that big? I’m finishing it tomorrow and will get another picture or two. Perhaps as Torx suggests, Oak.

It'd be rare, but not impossible. Any brash left with them? The buds would be a good tell.

I know beech cah have a dark centre, but this looks very dark. Have you considered walnut?
I would agree probably oak for the second. Cannot see the structure in the photos, but oak ought to be very distinctive. Plum or the like is much closer grained.

To me the grain looks a bit too wide for Oak. I would have suggested Ash but the bark is too rough.
