Oxford Wood Recycling
An unexpected treat this evening - we've just been given a big pile of V-notch T&G cladding, which looks like it's mostly new unused.
Approx 85mm wide x 12mm thick there's probably around 15m² available, for £1/m (£11/m²).
Want to make sure it's yours? Then call 01235861228 (option 2) without delay!

Whatever the answer, we'll be here until 8:00 this evening to help you find the best bits of wood to suit your needs as it's Thursday late night opening.

On a different topic we've had two huge kitchen worktops, the first in many months, and 10 oak whiskey barrels have also be brought into stock from storage.

There have been all sorts of oddments turning up in the past week, too many for me to keep up with writing individual posts about, so here's a little photo album to remind you of our range.
New furniture is constantly emerging from the workshop, whilst our collection teams continually bring back surprising treasures, and we also often get donations from your lovely people such as some bits of bamboo worktop that have arrived while I've been typing.
Call in to see more - it's an ever changing adventure!
