There was a link on here a few weeks ago to a site/document with a quite thorough list of uses for different kinds of wood. So for example you look up sweet chestnut and it tells you what you can use inch or two coppice poles for and also what you can do with a bigger stem. Detailed properties of the wood, so good for burning, making charcoal, building, whatever.

Can't find it now. Can anyone remember the link I'm talking about?

This wasn't just woodworking. Included stuff like what's best using for firewood, charcoal etc as well as stuff like young coppice poles being used for weaving and older ones being used for whatever.
