An oak bench in Westleton Church. Plain, solidly well made, probably about 1680 to 1710, and somehow typical of the church that houses it. Very satisfying piece of work.
More later perhaps.
P.s. Having looked carefully at the photo, it is very tempting to think that the bench might be of mid 17th century origin. It has a very Cromwellian/Commonwealth look about it.
