that no petrol chainsaws have been used in their production. The forestry
season (September to March) is the best time for this, not Polewood - we have Ash, Douglas Fir and Sycamore polewood (smaller diameter trees, up to a foot in diameter ) for sale, in lots of shapes and sizes, again the forestry season is the best time to harvest these.

We can build you a temporary (2-4 years?) structure very quickly (a couple of days) for an event, a workshop, a storehouse, a lean to etc. The outer shell is usually breathable second hand canvas or brightly coloured polypropylene tarpaulins, which can be hired or bought from us or we can direct you to suppliers.
