The Ingleby Seat with Backrest is a robust and thoughtfully detailed outdoor bench with backrest, designed to provide enhanced comfort and accessibility in public realm environments. Combining contemporary timber slats with a strong steel structure, it offers a practical seating solution for parks, streetscapes, and civic spaces where inclusive design is a key consideration.
With optional armrests available, the Ingleby range supports a wide variety of users, making it an ideal public bench with backrest for high-footfall locations.
Improved Comfort and Accessibility in Public Spaces
Adding a backrest significantly increases the usability of public seating, particularly for older users or those requiring additional support. The Ingleby Seat has been developed to meet these needs while maintaining a clean, modern appearance suitable for architectural schemes.
This park bench with backrest is well suited to: • Town centre pedestrian areas • Public parks and landscaped gardens • Transport interchanges and waiting zones • Healthcare and community environments • Educational campuses and public courtyards
Its contemporary profile ensures it integrates easily with other coordinated street furniture benches.
Timber and Steel Construction for Long-Term Durability
The Ingleby Seat is manufactured using a combination of high-quality timber and steel, providing both visual warmth and structural resilience.
Timber Slat Options
A choice of timber types is available to suit different project requirements and material palettes: • FSC® certified timber (FSC-C122338) • Iroko (Kambala) hardwood • Douglas Fir
These options allow specifiers to select the most appropriate finish for the surrounding landscape, while maintaining the durability expected of a timber bench with backrest in external environments.
Steel Frame Support
The steel structure provides strength and stability, ensuring the bench performs reliably in busy public settings where seating must withstand continuous daily use.
Optional Armrests and Fixing Choices
To further enhance inclusivity, armrests can be supplied on request, offering additional support for users when sitting down or standing up.
Available options include: • Armrests (price on application) • Mounting with anchors for secure installation
These features make the Ingleby Seat a flexible outdoor bench with backrest solution for a wide range of public realm specifications.

Integration Within Wider Street Furniture Schemes
