Green Oak Memorial & Celebration Benches
Hand crafted green oak benches: leave a beautiful legacy for your loved ones, or mark a moment worth celebrating.
A lasting place to sit, reflect and remember
A green oak bench is a quiet, lasting tribute. Whether it's in memory of someone dear, or to celebrate a wedding, anniversary, birth or community milestone, Ian will make a bench that's entirely yours.
Each bench is shaped by hand from solid green oak using ancient and traditional rural craft skills, so no two are ever the same.
- Solid green oak that weathers beautifully for many years
- Personalised to your wishes, with words that matter to you
- Suits gardens, churchyards, parks, schools and woodland
- Local timber from sustainably managed National Forest woods
