I'm at a loss locally, the sawmill, farm shop and timberyard have all drawn a blank.
I'm looking for an online store who'll dispatch to Stroud, Glos. 3 wooden treated machine round poles, 125mm diameter, min 3.2m long.
They're for a sail sun shade.

Don't know how you'd prepare them so they don't look like, you know, old telegraph poles.
How about http://www.forest-products.co.uk/timber/stakes-and-rails/
Fencing grade machine rounded poles and half-round rails. Pressure treated green. Some sizes also available brown – please ask for details.

Round poles:
125 dia (5″) 3.00, 3.60
How about square and an electric planer ?. Might be the only option is to make them yourself.
Sorted.
