Tree ID x 2

Just a thought but could you google street view where this tree was before it blew/was chopped down and find a photo of it in full leaf?

A very good thought Doris : )
I had looked on SV a few days ago and couldn't get a view of the tree (dated 2016). This time started at the other end of the road and Google has updated part of the road (dated 2022) and we have this.
Thanks again Doris.

If that's the felled tree you're trying to identify it looks suspiciously elm like. I say that because the leaves look similar to beech but the leaf bases, as best I can tell from the fuzzy photo, seem to be asymmetrical which is characteristic of elm, see below, the image sourced from the Woodland Trust website. I could, of course, be very wrong. Slainte.

Or Hornbeam?... very similar shape to an elm - of which there are different ones of. I've a few in my bonsai trees but I'd have to try to find the photos: Wych, Field, Zelkova... etc.
These photos are of a copper beech (1st photo, lighter colour) and common or green beech (2nd, darker) although winter colours and a bit dried. Notice pointed leaf buds plus placement on the stem. ( @Noel )
