  • Log Building Opening

    LOG BUILDING OPENING

    3rd December 2011 @ 12 midday

    YOU ARE INVITED TO JOIN US TO OPEN THE BUILDING AND MEET THE KIRKHILL AND BUNCHREW COMMUNITY TRUST WOODLAND GROUP

    Refreshments available after the opening!

    Please park at the main Reelig Glen Forestry Commission Car Park and walk up into the woodland

    The log building in Upper Reelig Community Wood has been  relocated from Balnain Wood and will be used as a focus for the community woodland group’s activities, as an equipment store and a resource centre for Forest School and other community activities.

    Kirkhill and Bunchrew Community Trust Woodland Group secured support for the building  from their own funds,  the Highland LEADER programme and Forestry Commission Scotland. It’s constructed from local logs, scribed to fit together. Whole larch logs and milled timber from Reelig were used in the construction and with a turf roof it has a low visual and environmental impact. Local log builder Mike Cooper relocated and finished the building on site in Reelig.

    The building is situated in the beech trees down from the upper car park.
