Woodland

[Fra]

Does anyone have a woodland or know of anyone with one, that requires some thinning and tidying up. I am offering to do this on a casual basis in exchange for firewood. I am trained, qualified and experienced but can no longer get wood from work.

He hasn't been on here for a while but might respond.

I tried contacting TJH not so long back both on here and mobile. Thought I'd chance there being someone else with some neglected woodland

have you tried to contact the countryside rangers service at Lancashire County Council,they have volunteer's and woodland all over the area,there is also a friends of Springwood in Walley which meet on a monthly basis at Springwood.

That's a good idea. I'll do that

Try the friends of Arden Hall.They are always tidying the woodlands around the top of Plantation Street. Give Councillor June Harrison she is on the committee for Friends of Arden Hall. Sorry I don't know her number

Sorry I meant give Councillor June Harrison a ring

Gosh that takes me back. Whilst working for the Countryside Ranger & Information Service filling up my Volvo Estate with every tree that was felled . I think that was the reason I bought my wood burning stove.

That's worth a try but I reckon someone will have already got first dibs.
