Firewood
Non-fossil fuel from well-managed, sustainable woodlands
in Cuerden Valley Park.
The wood is seasoned, as freshly cut logs contain
about 50% water. Trees are felled in the winter and
stacked to season over summer before they are ready
for burning the following winter.
Well-seasoned ash, sycamore, oak, birch and beech are
all good firewood.

Charcoal
BBQ charcoal made in the woods at Cuerden Valley
