(Moderator edit : this is a long running thread, it would be wise to read through to the end to check for additions and amendments. Don't assume that the information is up to date )

Hi all,

I am setting up a list of UK and Ireland timber yards and the offerings that they provide.


ADDING a new timber yard/s?
Please post JUST the name of the yard, it's location and, if known, the web site address in this thread (NOT ANY DETAILS such as opening times). The detail will be added in a separate 'Notes' thread, once the yard has been set up.


POSTING DETAILS about a timber yard?
Please click 'Notes' on the right hand side for the yard that you want to update. If it says Notes WIP it means that the yard is set up, but we are not yet ready to request details about the yard. There is sometimes a short wait for detail requests, this is so that we do not fill the board with timber yard threads.


NB We STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you CHECK OPENING DAYS AND TIMES.


NEW to BUYING Hardwood?

If you are new to buying hardwood, you MUST READ this EXCELLENT thread by Custard.


Thanks,

Neil

For Veneers please see Capital Crispin (London).

Hi there

WE Holden, Laithes Mill, near Penrith in Cumbria. 017684 84356

Good old fashioned timber yard with freindly service and good advice. Also joinery services.
 
Chilworth Timber Company Ltd
Lower Chilworth Farm
Milton Common
Nr Thame
OXON
OX9 2JS

E: [email protected]

Just found this company, very friendly, large stocks of all the most popular woods although I didn't see any turning blanks, milling facility. Happy to let you choose your own boards.

(Edit) Ex Timbmet Oxford without the attitude!
 
Two for the list (although I'm struggling to read any of the listings as the code seems to have gone mad!)

Davies Timber at Wythall, S Birmingham - big selection of hardwoods

Cutlist at Chinnor, near High Wycombe - not a timber merchant as such but laser precision cutting of panel material (plywood, MDF etc) that they also supply
