Not very good with trees but I'd guess at Elm, Birch or Willow?
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
I think it is an Elm Mick, possibly a Wych Elm which has a particularly rough bark. Its a very tall tree, ancient looking tree which leans over the road, close to this bridge. I don't have a better ID than that although when it sprouts leaves flowers and fruits ID will be easier.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Thought I'd cheer myself up and treat myself to a new car...
So I visited a little back-street showroom this morning to see what they had...
I quite fancy the orange one

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
By the look of those tyres, I think you might find the ride a bit harsh.
Not game to sneak up a bit closer to take the photo? Think I'd be afraid a salesman might jump out and try the hard sell on me...

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Aston Martin's finest hour was when they produced this vehicle in Bahama yellow.
1970's of course, their new stuff doesn't excite me one bit.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
Is that a typo there Neil, should the colour not be Bahama Yellow?

The scenery on this one looks very like the Durham moors.
