Chestnut is the cheapest hardwood I have seen and that's £45 tonne delivered. Nicest wood to process but so sloooooooow to dry. Never been offered ash only and doubt I would be prepared to pay the premium it commands. Mixed loads seem to be £55-£60 delivered down here.

 

Never had a full load of chestnut just mixed in with other stuff.

 

Don't think I would either ok with 5% mixed in

On the deck in yard. Love sycamore but always have problems with mould

 

Hornbeam is also great but if you get a 14 inch piece with buttresses on it struggles to split as the grain is so twisted

 

Dont think i have ever had hornbeam.

Is it not generally quite twisted?

A friend of mine does most of the harvester work but yes they do have lots of cutters. The London market is not that strong Jon as the cost is more due to transport time. I no guys selling KD for £125 a cube in the big smoke
