Each log will look different as each will come from a tree that were felled in land clearing or timber cutting operation. The Logs are supplied to us instead of being bulldozed and burnt.
most logs weigh in excess of 100kgs and so cannot be posted. This is a pick up service only from us in Ripley (near Ipswich) .
When positioning your log, we recommend a paver placed under the flat base cap to lift it up off the ground so as not to rot the log.
A log in the garden is incredibly beautiful and will give you much joy to see them going about their daily business.
logs are approx1.2m high and 20-30cm diameter across the base.
LOGS MAY BE DIFFERENT TO PICTURED AS STOCK IS UPDATED REGULARLY
