  1. Basingstoke area. I'd rather have new poles as I don't want any creosote or such leaking from the poles as it may form part of the stair case.
  2. Anybody know where I can get 6-7m poles from ?
  3. I guess this is my dilemma. To bolt or not to bolt. I like the idea of not damaging the tree but I think it looks better to not have stilts. Having said that I could build a stair case in the stilts.
  4. I want to build a tree house for my children in this Oak tree. I have never done such before and was just interested in peoples advice and opinions. Has anybody built one ? I want it to last so I was thinking bolts into the tree would initially cause the most damage but may heal and be a better long term option ? I could put it on stilts but would it look as nice and how much damage would concrete pads do to roots ? Eventually I would like to have a zip line from it and a bridge to it from a nearby Sycamore. All plans in my head at the moment though. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
