UK Timber prices hit a peak at the end of 2017 and first half of 2018 and values have remained up around this elevated level ever since.
According to Bidwells’ latest Timber Price Database, which tracked returns from 121 coniferous transactions involving almost 800,000 cubic metres of private sector coniferous timber grown, with a standing value to the grower of £29.8 million, in Scotland, Northern England and Wales, between April and September 2018, prices have actually risen slightly during this period.
