"Our timber philosophy"

Trees give us so much during their lifetime. That's why once the tree is no longer able to give it's majestic presence, it's beautiful grains should be "shown off" by bringing the timber back to life! To be s

at on, played in, swung from and lazed in...

These are the gifts of our glorious giving trees

The National Forest

The National Forest is one of Britain's boldest envrionmental projects, creating a new Forest for the nation across 200 square miles of Leicestershire, Staffordshire and Derbyshire. More than 7.8 million trees have now been planted, trebling the woodland cover and transorming the landscape. This woodland will eventually cover around a third of the Forest area to link the ancient forests of Charnwood and Needwood.
