As above, just pulling down a beech tree. I hear it burns quite well.

So, I now have the trunk of a beech tree, it's about 10 ft long (from a 20ft tree) and fairly substantial at the bottom. I can't lift it that's for sure.

I also have a couple of old fence panels and a dismantled shed, neither of which were treated in the past 10 years. Perfect for an outdoor fire.

I'd like everything to go as one really. Free, naturally.

I must look out for you!

I'd have taken this firewood but i'm struggling to find adequate transport, i'm not sure i'll get a 10ft tree in the back of an A4 Avant unfortunately.

Bumping this. The tree is felled and all the branches disposed of, it's just the trunk now, and an old shed.

Free to a good home, happy to help load but you must collect from Hitchin.

Hi there I'm in hitchin and may be interested in getting this from you. We would have to cut the tree where it's laying would this be a issue? It's a small van so won't fit in as is. Many thanks Jamie
