Keith, is this it: Woodland crafts in Britain: An account of the traditional uses of trees and timbers in the British countryside by Herbert L Edlin, Publisher: David and Charles
Yes, sorry, there are two of them - British Woodland Trees, and Woodland Crafts in Britain, both by Edlin. Also his Trees, Woods & Man. He wrote others, but those are the ones I have.
But it was just a sort of random example I used. Best wishes Keith
