On behalf of Fiona:
A colleague of mine who works with broadleafed woodlands and woodland
grant
schemes is currently doing some work in a woodland which has in the
past been coppiced, possibly not for about 70/80 years but prior to
that on a fairly regular basis. Does anyone have any experience of how
you can date the trees which have been coppiced, perhaps by the
root/tree base? Has any work been done on this sort of thing? Are
there rings to count in the root base??
Any ideas or references would be great.
Fiona
