At Woody we have a Logasol Portable Chainsaw Mill and an Alaskan Chainsaw Bar Mounted Mill. Although it can be relatively slow, chainsaw milling enables us to process timber into planks on site and we can do so much more with the timber we fell.
Timber Processing Coppice Products
Way-markers, Coppice Benches, & Bird boxes
We use planks of Larch, processed using the chainsaw mill to make picnic benches, resting seats, bird and owl boxes and way-markers.
Hedging Stakes
We produce hedging steaks from the hazel coppiced at Clayton Forest Park to supply materials for our dead hedging projects
Bat Boxes
Made from Larch, felled and milled in Hollins wood in Baxenden. These boxes are for use by the Prospects Foundation through their Rewilding programme. Clients from the Alternative Futures group will make the kits into boxes and install them on a site in Hyndburn.
Hedgehog Homes
A Woody hedgehog home ready for Intack Primary School’s wildlife garden next week. Made from Accrington grown Larch!
Firewood and Charcoal
We process large amounts of firewood from our woodland thinning activities. The timber is available to buy. We can provide a trailer or half trailer load of logs to stove length or in full length. In 2012 we did a charcoal burn. Bags of Hyndburn charcoal made by Woody is currently on sale in the One Planet shop…. Read more »
