A Bold Street Bench for Public Realm Projects
The Shoreham Bench has been developed for locations where seating must withstand frequent use while contributing positively to the surrounding landscape design. Its wide slatted profile and solid steel substructure create a bench that feels substantial without appearing over-designed.
Typical applications include:
• Town centre streetscapes and pedestrian zones
• Parks, green spaces, and waterfront promenades
• Public transport interchanges and station forecourts
• Campus environments and civic developments
• Residential-led regeneration and mixed-use schemes
As an urban bench, it supports both functional rest points and wider placemaking objectives.
Materials Designed for Long-Term Outdoor Use
The Shoreham Bench combines proven materials selected for strength, weather resistance, and visual quality in external environments.
Galvanised Steel Frame
The heavy-duty steel frame is galvanised as standard to protect against corrosion and everyday wear, making it appropriate for exposed public settings.
Iroko Timber Slats
Nine iroko hardwood slats form the seating surface, offering:
• Excellent durability in outdoor conditions
• A smooth, comfortable seating finish
• Natural warmth that complements contemporary landscapes
• Reduced risk of splitting compared with softer timbers
For projects requiring alternative timber specification, FSC treated softwood slats can be supplied on request.
Shoreham Bench Dimensions
The Shoreham Bench is supplied in a standard size suitable for a wide range of public seating layouts:
• Length: 2000mm
• Width: 695mm
• Height: 450mm
Its wider format improves comfort and accessibility, particularly in busy communal areas.
Fixing Options for Secure Installation
To suit different ground conditions and site requirements, the Shoreham Bench can be installed using:
• Root fixing for permanent, high-security locations
• Base plated fixing for surface mounting onto prepared foundations
This flexibility allows contractors and specifiers to select the most appropriate solution for the project environment.
Coordinating with Broxap Street Furniture
The Shoreham Bench is often specified alongside complementary public realm products to create a consistent external furniture package. It can be paired with other Broxap ranges such as:
• Litter bins and recycling units
• Bollards and pedestrian barriers
• Cycle parking stands and shelters
• Additional public bench seating and picnic units
This supports a cohesive approach across wider streetscape and landscape schemes.
