Three or four trees planted so close together they form a a multistemmed boundary marker
Beech (Fagus sylvatica)
A line of Beech (Fagus sylvatica) forming a marker boundary between parishes we think.
Waveney Forest
Parmelia sulcata?
Black rizines. Black underside.
A very wet Physconia grisea

Beech (Fagus sylvatica)
Probably a boundary group made up of a number of trees
Decidedly muscular as Beech often are.
Inosculation or natural grafting. Multiple trees planted very close together can grow into a single, large thick trunked tree.
As they grow together the bark scrapes away and the cambium layers fuse together.

A bit confusing this as the leaf above shows no teeth.
But as Julia pointed out (Thank you)
Lf bases are very narrowly decurrent (had to look long and hard on this)
No teeth on the fresh new leaves of the specimen (but found toothed leaves amongst older parts). Smith says: 'margins sometimes entire in plants in dry habitats.', although teeth maybe 'obsolete' in P. rostratum.
Laminal cells porose (not or hardly so in P.rostratum).
Southern Crestwort (Lophocolea semeteres)
