These pictures show the final stages in surfacing the area between the new Timber Treatment Centre and the Weighbridge. The new asphalt surface will help cope with 80,000 tons of logs which come into the yard every year…and also go out again as finished product. We also take in around 25,000 tons of bark each year to grade.
Since the Bishop’s Castle Railway line closed in 1937 every one of those tons move on lorries – so we do like to keep our yard in tip-top condition for the vehicles to move around!
