Anyone fancy a stack of sturdy fence panels? Or a set of hefty driveway gates?
The ledge and brace gates each measure 150cm wide x 175cm high and come with a drop bolt and latch but no hinges. Made from treated timber they are well weathered but still in good condition, £150 the pair.
Fence panels are 3m x 170cm, looking pretty grubby but the timber is perfectly sound. There are 9 in this load for £18 each.
Visit if you'd like to view, or call 01235861228 to buy by phone.

We try to make sure that the sizes prepared will cater for a wide range of projects, so there are smaller chunks for turning blanks, chopping boards and pyrography, up to coffee table/desk tops and 1m - 2.4m shelving in a range of widths.
We also stock finishing oils from OSMO, a range of shelving brackets, and UK made hairpin legs, to help you complement this beautiful timber.
