In mid-2020, the Wood Store is still delivering wood but has left Elder Place. Their opening at new address is delayed but they are still selling and delivering wood. Phone or see web site for details.

If you haven't been to this place yet, drop in soon, it is special, a true community based social enterprise that benefits everyone it reaches. The stock always offers the potential of something unique, as they're selling reclaimed wood, but there is also generally a reliable level of stock for your basic timber needs, including a decent range of fixtures and fittings (also reclaimed), as well as a range of art and furniture, made in house. They also have a pretty good stock of bits and bobs going spare that are not sellable. In terms of the service to community, they employ people or provide decent internships for students and graduates, as well as opportunities to explore and develop their practice. As a customer I know that if I have an idea I want to float l or some technical questions, there is little point in me going to one of the big name stores as they are just moving and selling stock, with no passion for the work or skill. At The Wood Store you will speak to someone who works with wood every day and has a background in the arts or trades associated with woodwork. See the pic for the set of drawers I built with their wood and support in terms of expertise and advice. :)
Great 5 star service,very friendly and helpful they will go above and beyond to help, will be using these guys for any future wood for projects can't recommend highly enough.
I love this place so much, built an awesome oak table with a piece of wood from here and its beautiful. Also used reclaimed scaffolding planks for a modular shelving system. Great staff and great prices.
Inspirational social enterprise. The store has a timber yard, plus a showroom selling goods for the home/office/garden, made from reclaimed wood. From furniture to smaller gifts. Well made items that make use of waste and leftovers that could easily clog up landfills. Great to see scrap wood being given a second life and the staff are so helpful. In the front yard, there is a section for firewood. They sell charcoal too. You can find construction materials, floorboards, joists and much more. Delivery is 12. Located behind London Rd shopping district, right near the London Road carpark and close to bus stops. 5 or 5a York Hill stop. Or Preston Circus or London Rd Shops stops: 21, 26, 37, 46, 49, 50, Metro.
