Need picks of the bark. A split would help.
The stuff I’ve cut is not porous and fuzzy looking, it is solid and dense, very heavy.

I cut alot of mulberry and that ain't mulberry. Green mulberry is yellowish, dead mulberry can range from yellow to a buckskin color if is really cured.
Dont really look like Mulberry.

That bark has an oak look to it to me, but trees are a bit different way up in the Northeast here.

Yea and minus trees like hickory we have a **** ton of trees with oak looking bark. I thought it might of bein red oak at first but don't most oaks have lines in the grain from the center of the tree to the bark. This one only have rings. Only thing I know about mulberry is it has a red heart wood and a white sap wood. Don't think its cherry. Thad be completely red. I'm still learning lol

not mulberry but some sort of oak. i think it is in the red oak family.
mature mulberry can get some rougher bark, but not that rough. mulberry has lots and lots of brush to process.it has sticky sap almost any time of the year, yellow inner wood. maybe a lite white on the outer layer just under the bark, mostly a orange yellow. very denseand heavy, till its seasoned

Looks like Elm to me.
My thoughts as well
Locust?
Pic of a leaf would help.

I've got a mulberry tree in the yard here that produces some fantastic berries in the summer. When we were excavating for the addition to my barn, we hit all its roots - they were really yellow in color under the bark. Same for the branches I have to cut back every year. Nothing else like it in this neck of the woods. VERY yellow.
