A Totnes designer is heaping praise on the new benches that are being installed at the park.

Sarah George notes that the benches are designed with entirely recycled plastic which complements the overall park aesthetic .

They were manufactured by a South Hams company based in Kingsbridge.

Sarah said: “Well done to the council.”

 “A huge amount of wellness goes on under these trees on these benches as well as sport watching.  

“This can now continue.”

 A big nod to the company who makes these benches. They are named after our wonderful local names.’

Sarah had previously been concerned that the new benches would be inappropriate for the park but is delighted with the end result.

Kingsbridge Town Council have also adopted a similar style of recycled furniture and planters for the town in keeping with their goal of reducing their impact on the environment.
