Another project completed in 2020 in time for Christmas is for Royal Parks London. We were asked to recreate this wonderful bench that has served many years in St John's Gardens in London's Regent Park. Two benches going to Royal London Parks are created with a bespoke bench design that they have named ‘The Bute’ bench after the Marquis of Bute who commissioned the gardens in Regents Park. This links to Cardiff Castle and Dumfries House, which Prince Charles has an interest in.
It all began so fabulously well didn’t it, 2020 was the start of a bright new decade, and the UK was embarking on a journey all of it's own as it carved out a bold new direction for itself.That was until we started hearing more about a new virus called Corvid 19. What began as a virus in China soon spread across the globe and it meant, for the time being anyway, that we had to change, our routines, our social habits and our way of life. This has been a tricky year for many people to put it mildly. Some, sadly, more than others and as we look back over the course of this year we remember loved ones, friends and the many people here and throughout the world who have been less fortunate than ourselves. Here at Woodcraft UK, it also meant that we had to find new ways of being able to continue production. As people took to their gardens with what was a great Spring weather-wise, we found that we started getting more enquiries about bespoke benches that would fit a particular garden shape or space. We also continued to receive more enquiries from local authorities, recreational grounds, parks and public gardens as people took to the great outdoors to get important exercise. We have worked all hours and done as much as is humanly possible to get through all of our orders built up. Orders for standard and bespoke products have continued to flood in, and we are hoping to get them out of the door early in the new year. Here are some of the highlights of our year of 2020
As recognition of the quality of our premium garden furniture grows so does our client base and such this year really has had a truly international flavour to proceedings. This order from July 2020 encompasses a wide range of our garden furniture and memorial benches setting sail for Tokyo in Japan.
There are many beautiful cemeteries across Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire, non more so than Hedon town cemetery of Holderness. Located slightly north of the Humber's north bank, Hedon town cemetery is a very peaceful and tranquil setting and home to many a church yard squirrel. Overlooked by St Augustine's Church, the cemetery lies just around the corner opposite Hedon Primary School down a tree lined drive frequented by strollers and dog walkers.
We have just installed a 6ft (1.8m) York memorial bench at the far end of the lake in Hull’s East Park. The spot was chosen because it had been a favourite place that was often visited by the person this bench was dedicated to. Views of the lake and the ducks from here are lovely, and despite it being a very cold day there were many people out walking. Several walkers stopped to admire the bench and commented on what a good place it was going to be to stop and have a short rest, as it is the farthest place from the centre of the park and nowhere else to sit down.
A private customer in London approached us with this interesting project. Due to constraints in the dimensions of their garden we were asked to produce a very specific size and shape of garden table. This outdoor dining table measures 3 meters by 2.8 meters by 2 meters and has been created with a central parasol hole. The top and base frame needed to be able to be separated to gain access through the house and then re-assembled once it is in position. Here are some pictures of the garden table in production showing the table top frame.
We received a wonderful thank you from a customer in Derbyshire recently. Anna ordered this bench as a gift for her husband for their 5th wedding anniversary. We built a 4ft (1.20m) Mendip memorial bench for Anna with the top rail modified and engraved. As you can see and the top rail was shaped with a central disc to accommodate the emblem that she wanted. Working to her specifications and deadline, we had a challenge to present the design on to the top rail in a way that was effective and prominent enough to see from a reasonable distance. We think adding the disc to the top rail allowed us to recreate her commemorative design at a size that took pride of place. Anna said: Hi there - it arrived yesterday, right on time, and is PERFECT. Thank you. Best wishes Anna
