|  Name That Tree! Hey All, Could any of you clever people help me identify these trees (behind shed) and whether they are fully mature yet? It is located in the UK in the Midlands. We are going to dig foundations for a new outbuilding close to it so need to know what were dealing with (if you have any tips on building near trees that would also be much appreciated - the soil is a sandy clay) Thanks in advance, Ched |

If want to save the tree - stay as far away as possible, or if doing foundation work - hand dig around the roots and hope for the best,
