shamefully, I have NO places for sitting in the garden (not wishing to encourage idle offspring and their pals) - although I do have a timber coping round my beds which was always meant to be used as possible bench seats (similar to Paula's)....but was filled, within days of construction, with dozens of pots, seed trays, tools and other garden equipment, leaving just enough space for an elderly collie to poke it's nose into the plantings - which have overflowed onto every remaining inch of space. If pressed, I can produce a couple of folding seats, once the pots on the floor have been kicked aside....oh yeah, I have a chair (for me) in the greenhouse. At the allotment, the seating tends to be bits of timber balanced on breeze blocks or upturned pots ). I sometimes sit in the wheelbarrow too. The gardens are not places of rest but places of work. To relax, I go inside and loll on a sofa with a book.

I was going to say it looked asian (patterned after an opium bed) but I usually get jumped on for that. A garden bench would not have drawers. Casey

Here's what happens to these old cast iron pieces. I need two replacement legs and they need to have mounting for the stretcher. These are rear legs for a chair. For their original owner they came as a set and assembled with nuts & bolts. Couldn't open JD's link. Is my only hope to canibalize other chairs? I think that the stove co. went out of business. These were common at one time, does anyone know anything further?
