ID on this tree stump please

Post by Dibbo »

Hi all,
I think this is the stump of an olive. The old stump has shot a number of smaller branches and am thinking of taking it out of the ground and hooking into it with a carving tool. getting it out of the ground will be a massive job so I would like to confirm the species first and then if you guys think that it would be worthy of playing with. Thanks in advance for any advice. :tu:

OK, thanks everyone. Will have a go at getting it out of the ground.
