Thanks Jon, I will tackle it carefully. It looks to me like its too low to the ground to be a problem. I'll try to get a picture and put it on here.

Standing and lying deadwood each create different ecological niches and benefits, so I understand that the more there is the better. In sun and in shade and partly in water each create different habitats/environments.

How quickly does it season plz? I cut/split one up recently and was wondering if it would be ready for this winter, stores outdoors under cover on a breezy hillside field. I've not encountered it before so have no clue on its seasoning time.

I've not burnt it yet, but have been looking into it. As I understand it it seasons quickly, much like willow or alder. I'm planning on processing mine in June and hoping it will be good to go by October. Others on here will know more than me, and may well tell me I'm wrong
