We both still think it's Cercis siliquastrum, the Judas tree. Admittedly
it's not very distinct but it looks like it.

great stuff. Thanks I will let him know.
I am dead jealous of him having his own 4 acres of woodland and living there
in any case.If I wasn't on my own, I would be moving over there to live the
good life too.

If it is a Judas tree (I can't see the picture but it does look like
it) I have one which I grew from seed, and it is a great pleasure.
Good luck with your seed-growing.

Other may have different ideas, though, so hang on a bit. ;-) The other
thing that did pass through my mind was Lagerstroemia but I don't think the
description can be made to fit that, or vice versa. But they are grown as
street trees in the Dordogne and the Lot. http://tinyurl.com/d6ooh
I do hope his woods have the truffle trees;-)
