Wood Burning Guide
Here is our wood burning guide to the different types of wood and their ratings as to how well they burn.

Alder
Growth – a height of 8m after 10 years, 15m after 20 years and a final height of 25m.
Low Quality. Although Alder wood tends to burn quickly when fully seasoned, it gives off little heat.
RATING: 1 OUT OF 4

Apple
Once the seasoning processing begins Apple wood becomes extremely hard stuff – it needs to be seasoned well. So, to save yourself some hard work at a later date, ensure that you chop the logs whilst they are still green. Apple wood burns with a gorgeous aroma, and doesn’t tend to spark or spit.
RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

Ash
Growth – a height of 8m after 10 years, 11m after 20 years and a final height of 35m.
Probably one of the best woods for fuel, burning well even when green, but obviously when fully seasoned it burns even better, producing lovely flames and great heat. at an even rate. Use the branches for kindling. Due to it’s low water content, it is comparatively easy to saw, chop and split.
RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

Beech
Growth – a height of 6m after 10 years, 10m after 20 years and a final height of 40m.
A very good firewood which produces both heat and flame. Beech can sometimes give off a few sparks. It is easy to chop.
RATING: 4 OUT OF 4

Birch
Growth – a height of 8m after 10 years, 12m after 20 years and a final height of 18m.
An excellent firewood producing a great fire and burns well, even unseasoned. It does tend to burn very quickly, so you might want to mix it with a slower-burning wood.
Tip – the bark of the Birch is easily peeled from the tree without causing any damage. Containing an oil, it can be used in kindling.
RATING: 4 OUT OF 4

Blackthorn
Growth – a height of between 1m and 4m.
Although the logs are small, Blackthorn burns slowly and gives off lots of heat and little smoke.
RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

Cedar
Growth – a height of 8m after 10 years, 15m after 20 years and a final height of 40m
Not a good wood to burn on open fires as it spits and sparks Ideal for kindling. Burns fast
RATING: 1 OUT OF 4

Cherry
Growth – a height of 2m after 10 years, 5m after 20 years and a final height of 8m and spread of 6m.

RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

Elm
Growth – a final height of between 15 and 20m. These trees do best in fertile, sandy, loamy soils.
Needs to be seasoned extremely well as it has a massive water content (140%!). Larger logs are difficult to split. A good firewood, burns slowly, giving constant heat.
RATING: 2 OUT OF 4

Eucalyptus
Growth – fast-growing, up to 3m each year when trimmed. It is native to Tasmania and can produce shoots 2m in length. It is adept at sprouting if cut-down and hence its suitability for effective hedging. Not commonly used as firewood. High water content makes logs difficult to split unless very well seasoned. Tip – slice into rings and season during the summer months. Burns quickly without spitting.

Hawthorn
Growth – a height of 4m after 10 years, 6m after 20 years and a final height of 15m.
Excellent firewood, burns very well, hot and slowly. Even the smaller twigs are worth using.
RATING: 4 OUT OF 4

An excellent firewood, seasoned. No spitting, burns quickly.
RATING: 4 OUT OF 4

An excellent firewood. Burns quite slowly, giving off plenty of heat. Generous seasoning is required – 2 years! Oak that hasn’t been seasoned long enough can give off an acrid smoke. Not much flame with this one, so you may wish to combine it with another, flaming-producing wood, for the best looking fire!
RATING: 4 OUT OF 4

Pear
Growth – ultimate height around 3.6 – 5.4m. Season well. No spitting with this one. Produces excellent heat, as well as a gorgeous aroma.
RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

RATING: 1 OUT OF 4

Sycamore
Growth – a height of 10m after 10 years, 15m after 20 years and a final height of 35m.
Good firewood, burning well, but doesn’t necessarily produce as much heat as some of the other top firewoods around. The thinner branches of the Sycamore make useful kindling and can be easily broken by hand, once seasoned.
RATING: 3 OUT OF 4

Walnut
Growth – a height of 5m after 10 years, 12m after 20 years and a final height of 30m.
Poor firewood.
RATING: 1 OUT OF 4

Garden Corner Bar.
You can entertain in style with your own garden bar. it's like having your own garden pub! Our outdoor garden bars are hand built using top quality timber and will last for many years. The Home garden Corner Bar has an open front and side with access from the side. It has been designed to fit snugly into a corner of your garden, decking, Patio or yard. There is no floor in this version shown, so it can be placed on grass or on a patio or on decking. If required this bar can be supplied with a floor. This bar is very easy to assemble and disassemble, so it can be moved for storage if required. The standard entry to the bar is on the right hand side (looking from the front as is you were a cusomer) but it can be built on the left.

This product has been manufactured using pressure treatment. This process is often referred to as tanalising and is far superior to any process where wood is dipped or has a base coat applied. Tanalising involves impregnation with Tanalith E (environmentally friendly) wood preservative, in a vacuum pressure timber impregnation plant. When impregnated into the timber the chemicals become locked into the wood and cannot be removed.
