We’re Going to Need a Bigger Bench

Do you have a Chatty Bench in your local park? This one was inspired by ours in St Anne’s Well Gardens, Hove where we also have a Quiet Bench.

I love benches. If you know my work, you’ve probably noticed that already! I like to read the inscriptions before sitting, and then I think of those dedications and give thanks. Must say, I never sit on the Chatty Bench…

This piece will be ready to send or collect (by appointment) from 27th October.
