    You could use a hollow drill called a trephine to cut out a plug of wood so you could do your dendrochronology. Probably best to replace the plug in the tree.

    It's 100% accurate Hec, Julie's answer lists trees that don't grow in the UK so not comparable.
    What type of tree do you have?

        ask the old people in your neighborhood  how old the tree is.
