    The artisans. Burning ambition: the life of an artisanal charcoal maker - in pictures
    Darryl Kelbrick shows Christopher Thomond the painstaking process behind artisan charcoal burning, a practice he has spent the past decade learning in an ancient coppiced woodland where he lives with his partner off-grid.

    Charcoal burner Darryl Kelbrick using a traditional ring kiln to create barbecue charcoal, pet charcoal and compost.

    A decade ago Darryl and his partner Jo bought 33 acre Great Lindeth Wood, a rare, ancient coppiced woodland in Cumbria where they live off-grid. The land had been coppiced in the past but fallen to neglect. By restoring the coppice they hope to reverse the decline in the numbers of birds and butterflies and make this form of woodland management a sustainable practice once again and relevant to 21st-century life.
    The kiln is left to burn overnight.
    Both, UK. 01 May 2023.

    Darryl Kelbrick shows Christopher Thomond the painstaking process behind artisan charcoal burning, a practice he has spent the past decade learning in an ancient coppiced woodland where he lives with his partner off-grid.

    Charcoal burner Darryl Kelbrick using a traditional ring kiln to create barbecue charcoal, pet charcoal and compost.

    A decade ago Darryl and his partner Jo bought 33 acre Great Lindeth Wood, a rare, ancient coppiced woodland in Cumbria where they live off-grid. The land had been coppiced in the past but fallen to neglect. By restoring the coppice they hope to reverse the decline in the numbers of birds and butterflies and make this form of woodland management a sustainable practice once again and relevant to 21st-century life.
    Checking the burn has started well in the early stages after lighting the kiln.
