Additional comments
One of three black poplars which form a line with English oaks which are on an old hedge bank. These are now in a pasture field which is crossed by footpath which runs nne-ssw across the field. The line of trees lies to the west of the path.
Trunk has deep indentations and some rot at the base where there was clear evidence of recent boring by insect larvae. Also some old fungi at base where bark had been broken off to leave bare heartwood. Rooys splay from bottom of tree on ditch side of bank. Lots of young shoots sprouting above 1.2m above ground. Tree healthy.
