Get a chainsaw cut the broken end flat and count the rings maybe take a photo of the rings they tell you so much .The closer the rings the drier that year was .Tells you how old the tree is can even give you ideas of weather occurences etc .

@Rhode57 A large beech was blown down some years ago in woods not far from me.
The forest's management cut the stump flat and fitted it with an acrylic plaque engraved with the rings (to highlight them), their years and a notable human-history event in the more significant years.
So many events we think of as so long ago, while the plant peacefully lived out its 200-300 year span in the Dorset countryside.

Wow. Good that it fell away from the house.
The inside of a tree trunk is kinda mesmerising though.
