Chestnut firewood available in West Sussex!

[Johnpl315]

Got an 8 wheeler load of sweet chestnut available near midhurst in West Sussex. Cut to three meter lengths. Very bendy but all three inches plus top diameter. Looking for £30 a ton at roadside.

Haulage can be arranged.

Would it be any good for cleft fencing? how bendy is it?

It’ll be the rejects from cleft fencing!!

As doobin says, it's the stuff that hasn't made the grade for fencing materials.

I,d be only looking for 1 ton, would you do just a ton ?  roughly how many poles would that be as I’m not sure how many I could fit on my trailer. 
 

happy to discuss more via pm

cheers.

I think you missed  the  “inch” bit . 👍

 

bendy,,, 3 inch plus tops

 

so I’m guessing if 5kg each  that’s 200. 
 

but wanted to be sure 😉

Thanks for the replies and messages. I really want to sell this as a lorry load of around 17 tons rather than small loads. It's mostly in the range of 3" to 10" top diameter so I would guess maybe 30 or 40 bits to the ton?
