Traditional All Timber Seats

A heavyweight seat having substantial timber sections that give increased strength, whilst retaining the inherent elegance of this traditional design. This model is principally intended for parks and other municipal uses. The particularly deep main rails shorten the length of the back slats which are a generous 16mm thick.

This reduces the risk of the back slats being kicked out by vandals, which can be a problem with all seats of this type.
The stainless steel screws used in the construction of this seat are fully plugged, and the main tenon joints are double-dowelled.

2400 Cavendish seats can be specified in standard form (with two frames) with an additional central leg, or an additional leg and arm. The 2400 version with the central leg only, is particularly traditional in appearance. As well as providing significantly increased strength, the 2400 central leg and arm version has an extra arm for the elderly and disabled, and discourages vagrants from sleeping on the seat.

Central frames also enable longer versions to be manufactured. 3600mm is the largest practical size, because of transportation difficulties. Commemorative versions with special back panels are normally produced for important national events such as the Queen's Golden Jubilee.

This top of the range heavyweight design is similar to the Cavendish seat, but has the addition of a more elaborate back rail, which particularly suits a plaque. We only manufacture an 1800mm version.
