About Us

Our Sawmill in Witherslack, South Lakeland, Cumbria

Witherslack Woodworks is a new partnership between joiners, foresters, coppicers and makers in wood, all based in Witherslack, with the aim to equip themselves and anyone else in the South Lakes to be able to sensitively extract and efficiently process the timber that grows here.

With specific forestry equipment we are able to access small, hard to access woodlands enabling the woodland owner to add value to their otherwise neglected small woodlands.

As a Co-operative with a skill range from felling the trees through to the final product, we understand the demand for ‘character’ timber not just the conventional straight-grained boards.

We are unique in that we are prepared to buy single sawlogs as well as full lorry loads.  Please feel free to contact us to arrange a look around and to discuss your forestry/sawmill needs.

We can supply freshly sawn wavey edged and square edge larch for all your outdoor needs. We stock a small amount of sawn larch, so please come and have a look if you’re looking for a small quantity of timber. We mainly mill timber to order and can mill to your specific requirements. Where possible we source our timber from Cumbria.
