and telegraph poles:thumbup1::thumbup1:

 

I burned a few lengths of one in April, I seriously thought the stove was going to explode or split in two it was so hot. I don't likme the idea of what thy might do to the chimey lining, so I aint going to use them any more.

 

Best ever firewood I have had has been Hawthorn, Norway Maple and Slver Leaf Maple. Better than coal and absolutely nothing left in the grate.

Simple - anything that is free of charge and that includes boughs pulled out of ditches and the old conifer dropped off by guys I fix saws for.

 

I have a lot of oak and mixed with a softer faster burning wood goes pretty well, Hawthorn is good if I can get hold of it, had a fair bit of elm which can be a mare to split as it is so hard but will burn anything that has been seasoned two years.

My favourite woods to burn are, in no paticular order:

Free

Dry

Free.

Hope this helps.

Damn fine woods those, not one in that list I'd disagree with.
