Elder as firewood

[Stereo]

Any views? We've got it growing everywhere and have cleared a load of it last week. SMuch it good firewood size. It's obviously very wet at the mo but it looks like proper wood! Aside from the fact it's haunted and witches come out of your stove, has anyone used it as firewood before?

burn it, it'll produce some heat, won't be the best i'm sure!

I've used small amounts of it. Its not particularly dense but does burn reasonably when dry.
