Doreen Small Log Store with Kindling Shelf
Doreen Small and Compact Log Store with Kindling Shelf
Not every home needs a huge log store. If you're looking for a beautifully made place to keep your firewood dry and organised without taking over your garden, patio or courtyard, Doreen is our compact log store designed to make the most of a smaller space.
Handmade in the UK, Doreen provides approximately 1 cubic metre of firewood storage, equivalent to around 1 tonne of logs, making her a practical choice for smaller households, occasional wood-burners or anyone who prefers to store a manageable supply of firewood close to the house.
Her compact footprint makes Doreen particularly well suited to gardens and outdoor spaces where room is limited. She provides the protection and ventilation your firewood needs while keeping everything neat and easily accessible.
Compact log storage with character
Doreen may be one of the more compact stores in our collection, but she has all the hallmarks of a traditional Frank & Pig log store.
Her attractive reclaimed Welsh slate roof provides protection from the British weather while giving the store a wonderfully aged and characterful appearance. The combination of natural reclaimed slate and timber makes Doreen a beautiful addition to a traditional country garden, courtyard or contemporary outdoor space.
The structure is built around substantial 70mm treated timber posts, with traditional gallows brackets and shiplap-clad sides adding strength and visual character.
Designed to help keep your logs dry
Firewood needs good airflow as well as protection from the rain, which is why Doreen has been designed with ventilation in mind. Her slatted timber back and raised slatted floor allow air to circulate around the logs, while lifting the timber away from the ground helps reduce exposure to surface moisture.
The result is a practical storage environment that allows your firewood to season naturally, keeping your logs ready for those colder evenings when you want to light the fire.
A handy home for kindling
Doreen includes a dedicated kindling shelf, giving you a convenient place to store smaller pieces of wood, kindling and fire-lighting essentials.
It is a simple but useful feature that means everything you need to get your fire started can be kept together, rather than scattered around your garden shed or piled beside the back door.
Why choose Doreen?
Doreen is the ideal choice for customers who want the quality and character of a traditional handmade log store but don't need the substantial capacity of a larger multi-bay model.
With approximately 1m³ of storage, Doreen is particularly well suited to homes with a smaller wood burner, occasional fire use or limited outdoor space.
If you've been considering one of our larger stores but don't need to hold several tonnes of firewood, Doreen offers a more compact and manageable alternative. Her smaller dimensions also make her a great choice for patios, courtyards and gardens where every inch of space matters.
In short: choose Doreen when you want beautifully made, practical firewood storage without the footprint of a larger log store.
