Benches and other Seats

Roadside benches and beach huts on the seafront in Exmouth, Devon. Happy Bench Monday everyone.............and have an enjoyable week. Thanks for all your visits, comments and yellow stars over the past week or so. Much appreciated. This will be my last post in the HBM group..........I don't like to be tied to specific days to post things :-)

A side view of the extended house, showing the paved walkway and the benches for use by the public. Happy Bench Monday everyone..!!

Taken in Southsea Rose Garden, Hampshire. Happy Bench Monday everyone. I hope you all have a good week. Thanks for all your visits, comments and/or stars over the past week. Always appreciated.

Being left on the bench is a sad time for any footballer..........even the young ones!!

I can never resist a shot of these benches each time I visit Old Portsmouth.

On a walk around Frensham Little Pond in Surrey, a couple of wooden benches caught my eye. This is one of them. I thought I'd share :)

Spotted this lovely wooden bench, and Iliked the subtle curves and the way the wood has been worn over the years.

Found this bench in the grounds of St Marys Church, North Marden.

I'm continuing to use the HBM theme to re-post some old photos from when I migrated across from Flickr which have had little or no attention on Ipernity. This one was originally taken in August 2012 in Old Portsmouth, Hampshire. Best viewed large on black. Thanks for looking. HBM everyone. I hope you have a good week :-)

Taken at Brook Meadow - a small nature reserve in Emsworth, Hampshire, UK. Please view large, on black. Thank you.

............but I liked its clean lines and shadow.

A bit of a postcard image taken in Bosham, West Sussex. The Holy Trinity Church can be seen in the background against an almost cloudless sky. Bosham is reputed to be where King Canute attempted to turn back the rising tide.

Taken yesterday on the Cowdray Estate, Nr Midhurst, West Sussex. The little green thing in the water is a duck house. The folly was built as a memorial to the Third Viscount of Cowdray who died in 2000.

Taken in the Bishop's Palace Gardens, Chichester, West Sussex. As you see, I'm back after an 8 day break from IP. Had a lovely week in the West Country despite the fact it rained all day, everyday..!! Hardly worth taking my camera gear with me, but it was great to see my daughter and the grandchildren again before Lockdown 2.0 kicks on on Thursday. Hope you are all well. I'll be catching up with you all during the week..............
