Sawmilling Directory

Cumbrian Sawmilling Directory

Introduction The aim of this directory is to connect buyers of timber and (sawmilling services) with Cumbrian sawmillers and timber merchants who stock predominantly locally sourced timber.

Use of the directory We have endeavoured to keep the directory simple and easy to use. A full list of all those sawmillers and timber merchants that wished to be registered is contained within. Suppliers are grouped under broad headings to make the sourcing of goods and services easier.
