Ash and Birch will burn well when green. I have a lot of Cherry which was wind blown and is down to 14%moisture but the Beech I had felled 4months ago is 25%. Got a moisture meter from Aldi.

The question has been asked who will Police it, well consider the options available: set one against another comes to mind, your next door neighbour on there report a smoky chimney app. Is that the country we are destined for?

It is the environmentall health department at your local council who police this sort of thing same as burning anything but wood or cardboard for years. Neighbours would probably report it to them but they still need to witness it/catch you at it. It took over two years before they managed to catch a local haulier who frequently burnt lorry tyres round here. Haulier knew they worked Monday to Friday 9 till 5 so he burnt outside those hours. Cutbacks meant there was no overtime allowed. Its all rediculous

Because the hot air rises up the window across ceiling down back wall as it cools,which is the warmest internal wall,you can reverse flow on back wall if using french doors but its not as effective,it also keeps windows dry and stops cold air at the point of entry.
Any other questions when im on my stool.

So will this be the death knell of bonfires????? Some folk near us have them nearly every other week and seem to constantly burn the dreaded leylandi which smokes like hell. What about bonfire night!
