Default Can someone recommend a tree for this purpose?

Good day!
Can anyone suggest a fast-growing tree (not a conifer) that grows to about 25ft max, and is suitable for alkaline soil in a southern England coastal location that gets occasional gales in winter? If the tree produces something useful such as edible nuts or medicinal or culinary leaves, that would be a bonus.

Many thanks!
