how old is this oak? (roughly) lol

I guessed about 100 years but never done this before so thought would ask you guys what you think?

Thanks.

 

Cut it down and count the rings :D

Just kidding... This seems to be quite a good guide of telling the age of a live tree
morton tree talk » How to Tell a Tree’s Age

 

Just got to find a chart which lists British tree species now *goes for a Google hunt*

***Edit***
Here we go (PDF File) http://wbrc.org.uk/atp/Estimating Age of Oaks - Woodland Trust.pdf
There's also a more complex one with other tree species (PDF File) http://www.forestry.gov.uk/pdf/fcin12.pdf/$FILE/fcin12.pdf

 

Thanks a lot I'm sure both of them will be coming in handy in the future.
:D

 

I've tried to picture the amount of rings inside it and comparing it to the oaks in my previous garden, I would reckon about sixty years.

 

Yeah, I would have said about 75, so I think we're close ish.

 

that's exactly what i was going to say........

 

Not as old as this one...........

 

Wow!!

 

Oh no, thats just down the road from Aesculus, he'll be round to do the dendro on it now:DOH:
