What the classification means
A company’s nature of business is recorded against the Standard Industrial Classification. Corsock Forestry Limited is registered under 02200, logging. In the classification that heading covers the felling of trees and the production of roundwood, sawlogs, pitprops, pulpwood, poles and fuel wood, together with the rough conversion that goes with felling on site.
It is worth saying plainly what the heading does not include, because the boundaries matter to anyone placing work. Growing and tending the crop before it is felled falls under silviculture, a separate heading. Sawing and planing timber is a manufacturing activity and sits elsewhere again. Logging is the middle part: the trees come down, they are converted to product specification, and they leave the wood.
How we are held
It is limited by shares, and closely held. None of it is on offer to the public and there is no parent company standing behind it. Like every registered company it files accounts and a confirmation statement each year, and those filings are open. A supplier or a buyer can read them without asking and without us being told.
It is registered in Scotland, so Scots law governs its constitution. That is a real distinction rather than a formality: registration in Scotland means a company number carrying the SC prefix, and it is the Registrar of Companies for Scotland who maintains the file.
Crofts Estates
The registered office is at Crofts Estates, Castle Douglas, in Kirkcudbrightshire. Formal notices and legal papers go there. It is the address the register carries, and the reason it is repeated at the foot of every page here is that a company must show it on its website and on its letters.
Castle Douglas sits in the Stewartry, in the middle of the Galloway forest country. We’s work follows the timber crop of that region and the counties around it.
If something here is wrong
Everything set out above can be checked independently. The register entry is public, free to search, and updated as filings are made. If a detail on this site ever disagrees with the register, the register is right, and us would be glad to be told.
