the age of the tree

We have a couple of fastigiate hornbeams in the garden, planted about 20 years ago.  We've had them trimmed a few times, but they had got rather large again.  Since we are planning on get some more solar panels, to go on the garage roof right next to them, we got them severely trimmed so they wouldn't cast shadows.  This involved "trimming" some quite large branches, and we realised we could see the tree rings!

so yes, it's about 20 years old...
