Sundry Wood Products
We produce several miscellaneous products. Some are available seasonally, such as pea sticks or bean poles, whereas others maybe in stock or may have to be ordered well in advance.
The raw materials for our products are mostly harvested during winter, so if you require an unusual product, it is best to order early at the beginning of autumn so we can ensure you are not disappointed.

| Besom (witches broom) The traditional country broom, ideal for sweeping the yard of dust or the lawn of leaves. The ash handle has the bark shaved off for a better grip, with straight birch twigs bound tightly round it using willow withies. Made in the truly traditional way, it is a joy to use and will grace any conservatory. |
| Pea Sticks Cut from the tops of hazel stems, we choose only those that fan out to a broad shape. 4 to 5 feet tall with 8 to 10 inches to push into the soil. |
| Bean Sticks These are 9 feet long ash rods, allowing 12 inches to be pushed into the soil, and about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. They will last several seasons if stored away during winter. |
| Willow We sell bolts (bundles) of willow suitable for hurdle or screen making. These rods are a year`s growth of an old basket willow variety called "Black Maul" (Salix Triandra). They reach 4 to 5 feet tall and each bundle covers 20-25 square feet of weave. |
| Flower Stakes Made to order to the size you require, either from ash or chestnut, if the latter is available. |
| Living Willow Structures We are able to supply materials for simple living willow structures as well as being able to build them ourselves. |
| Stakes and Binders Specifically for hedgelaying. Ash, hazel and mixed species stakes and binders. |
| Coppice Poles Any type of pole or rod for any number of uses. |
