        Definitely not Corylus avellana.. common name Hazel.
        Definitely not Alnus glutinosa...common name Alder.
        Leaf shape not right for these.

        My money is on Betula sp...a birch .
        Not even going to make a suggestion as to which one it might be!
        Wind blown seeds grow easily...especially in sandy soil.
        Seeds..see link

          Sorry @Scrungee , the bottle of Novello is off. :frown:

          But if anyone wants to come camping in my birch grove in about 50 years time, you are most welcome :biggrin:
