    Pics of the grain suggest that it could be Ornamental or Weeping Cherry, first pic of the bark confirms this but the second pic of bark suggests maybe Cedar of which it could also be
    Cheers

    Everything I can see points to Cherry. Got any for sale? I've been looking for enough for two chair legs.
    .
    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Regards, Woodwould.
