A close up of where a branch ripped away in the recent perfect storm - with the large discoloured patch down the middle suggesting that there has not been a lot holding up the branch in question for a while. It must be one of those sorts of trees where water can seep into the joins between trunk and bough, eventually causing rot. Beeches, I believe, are rather prone to it, although this is no beech tree.
