It all depends on the size and quality of the timber, and how well it is cut.

Any photos?

What size are they?

Possibly the reason people haven't jumped in answering the question as posed is it all depends...

Quality of timber could range from biomass to sawlogs, site might have access for a harvester to blast through or it might be boggy or steep and need hand felling and winching. You probably need to get a few different people in who know the game to look at the site and give an opinion, between the factors above it could barely pay for the extraction or could make a profit.

Recommend getting a qualified local forestry agent/consultant, not an easy DIY job to do well/run first time

Guy, you not spoke to Richard at Railsidings? Right on your doorstep and depending on size/quality of it, could mill some of it??? Pending extraction/transportation etc obviously.
