what's your favourite firewood

[IanW]

.... and why?

 

 

I've recently been burning some hawthorn and boy dose it give off some heat.

 

willow also burns well, but has to be really dry, not big flames but just a lovely warm glow! not much ash either.

 

any one else got a favourite or preference?

Hawthorn's my favourite too. Followed by Beech. For a stove, that is. Open fire might be a different matter.
