Wood-fired Ovens : Firewood

Firewood

Beechwood fires burn bright and clear
If the logs are kept a year
Store your beech for Christmastide
With new holly laid beside
Chestnut’s only good they say
If for years ’tis stayed away
Birch and firwood burn too fast
Blaze too bright and do not last
Flames from larch will shoot up high
Dangerously the sparks will fly
But ashwood green and ashwood brown
Are fit for a Queen with a golden crown.
Oaken logs, if dry and old
Keep away the winter’s cold
Poplar gives a bitter smoke
Fills your eyes and makes you choke
Elmwood burns like churchyard mould
Even the very flames burn cold
Hawthorn bakes the sweetest bread
So it is in Ireland said
Applewood will scent the room
Pearwood smells like a flower in bloom
But ashwood wet and ashwood dry
A king may warm his slippers by!

Our 25 cm long kiln dried hardwood logs are produced for us by Certainly Wood and supplied in either 1.6m3 or 1m3 bulk bags.

All logs are cut from sustainably managed woodland and are delivered nationwide.

There is a 10% surcharge for 35 cm or 50 cm long split logs. This is a premium product and although more expensive than local firewood supplies, it is guaranteed to burn more efficiently, produce more heat and less smoke.
