Run by the National Trust for Scotland, the house and gardens, now a visitor attraction, were once home to the Dalrymple family.
Claire Grant, the National Trust for Scotland’s operations manager for Newhailes House & Gardens, said: “We have removed some trees of concern from the estate as part of our ongoing woodland management.
“This is always carefully planned and focuses on trees that are in danger of coming down.
“We also cleared some self-seeded sycamore from around the area where the Centenary Garden will be built.
“We found that we had more wood and wood chips than we needed, so felt it was a great opportunity to make them available to people in the community.
“Any donations that people may want to make to our Centenary Garden would be very much appreciated.”
The chip is mostly sycamore, with a small amount of yew in the mix.
Newhailes is a Palladian house and a historically significant 17th-century estate that played a prominent role in the Scottish Enlightenment.
Within the estate, there are 34 hectares of diverse landscape, from ancient woodlands to parklands.
Newhailes also features one of the last surviving early 18th-century planned landscapes in Scotland, which will be the site for its Centenary Garden which will mark the National Trust for Scotland’s 100th anniversary in 2031.
