Yealm Bench
A stunning sculptural garden bench and statement piece designed and made for a housing development in 2019. These two pieces were designed to provide a resting place to enjoy the views over the Yealm Estuary and to compliment the feature wall. Timbers were sourced locally, the 3.4m long seat pieces came from a tree that fell in the 1987 Great Storm on an adjoining estate. The legs were from taken trees grown as coppice in a well-managed woodlands. This style of bench will sit beautifully in a wild or formal garden setting, and benches in a similar style can be ordered using our commissioning page.
All outdoor garden benches are constructed in either sweet chestnut or oak. Both these timbers are extremely durable and will give many, many years of good-looking service. We supply these benches untreated as we believe it is unnecessary to treat timbers like oak and chestnut with harmful chemicals which damage the environment. Both oak and chestnut will give in excess of 25 years in contact with the ground. They will naturally develop a silver patina and will simply need a scrub with water once in a while.
