Got Wood?
Milled Timber
We offer a timber milling service, you can bring your timber to us or we can supply you. Using our Alaskan Chain Saw Mill we can turn trunks to planks with relative ease. We accommodate 10ft lengths at 2ft wide. We can even kiln dry the lumber for you in our on site drying kiln.
Timber Merchant
Roundwood lengths of hard & softwood can be purchased subject to supplies in required lengths, diameters & volume. We typically sell by the wagon load. Please contact for details.
Charcoal
Our charcoal is made using only British hardwood branch wood gathered from our thinning work. These timbers when carbonised to make charcoal in our ring kilns burn hotter & longer than imported charcoal, lights with no additives and add value to our woods as well helping keep a healthy forest floor. The charcoal is graded to 3 sizes, BBQ lump wood sold locally as Lindisfarne Charcoal, further afield as Northumbria Charcoal, a smaller grade used by our good friend and master farrier Micky Cross, & the smallest grade bagged & delivered to The Royal Botanical Gardens Edinburgh as a soil conditioner in the glass houses. There's no waste here, ever!
Woodland Management
As well as the woods we manage for ourselves we also undertake contract forestry work. Woodland appraisal, brashing, thinning, footpaths, habitat creation, fencing, timber extraction. Harvesting with machine or chainsaw team extraction by large commercial forwarder or small low impact kit, it's all possible. Whatever your needs it may be worth dropping us a line. If we can't help we may know someone that can.
