Product Details:
A Park Seat Designed for UK Public Spaces
The Litchard Seat has been developed to meet the demands of UK public realm projects, combining a traditional seated form with materials chosen for strength and longevity. Its supportive backrest and generous proportions make it suitable for longer dwell times compared to simpler benches, while maintaining a restrained, professional appearance.
These park benches in the UK are commonly specified where user comfort and durability must be balanced within busy public environments.
Typical applications include: • Public parks and green spaces • Streetscapes and pedestrian routes • Residential developments and communal areas • Educational and healthcare campuses • Civic and leisure environments
Timber Slats with a Heavy-Duty Steel Frame
The Litchard Seat features seven timber slats forming the seat, with a double-slatted timber backrest provided as standard. These elements are supported by a substantial steel frame designed to withstand frequent use and prolonged outdoor exposure.
Construction features include: • Seven timber slats forming the seat • Double-slatted timber backrest for added support • Heavy-duty steel frame for structural stability • Designed for continuous public use
As a timber and steel bench, it delivers both comfort and long-term reliability.
Comfortable Seating with Defined Back Support
The inclusion of a full backrest distinguishes the Litchard Seat from simpler perch or backless benches. This makes it particularly suitable for locations where users may pause for longer periods, such as park paths, viewpoints, and communal gathering areas.
The seating geometry supports: • Improved comfort for extended use • Clear seating definition within open spaces • Broad suitability across age groups
Base Plated Installation for Hard Landscaped Sites
This stock version of the Litchard Seat is supplied base plated only, allowing it to be securely fixed to existing concrete or paved surfaces. Base plating supports efficient installation on retrofit projects and sites where excavation is not desirable.
Installation benefits include: • Suitable for hardstanding and paved areas • Secure fixing for public environments • Ideal for time-sensitive installations
Integration Within Street Furniture and Seating Schemes
The Litchard Seat is often specified alongside complementary street furniture seating, litter bins, bollards, and cycle infrastructure to create cohesive public realm layouts. Its combination of timber and steel allows it to sit comfortably within both landscaped and urban settings.
Additional configurations and fixing options are available on a made-to-order basis for projects with specific requirements.
