I reckon it must've been a rotten tree. I went running past this area
at this time and although it was breezy it was nothing to write home
about. I recorded a top gust of 28 knots chez moi 5 miles to the SE
of this location and with similar exposure (Bayston Hill, just over
100 m amsl), and that wouldn't be enough to bring down a healthy tree
IMHO.
