Wood pricing chaos in Horsham sparks famine fears
The Horsham market faces confusion over cord and ton measurements for firewood, with 128 cubic feet per cord and 40 cubic feet per ton. Prices show boxwood and bulloak at about 1 pound 16 shillings per cord, higher rates for better wood, and 10 percent add ons for new 40 hour week rules. Merchants report some undercutting amid fears of a wood famine as carters struggle to supply profitably.
