Emergency Bench Repair — Part 1

We have an old bench in the front garden.

The bench in spring.

Rarely is it used as seating.

The marble is from an historic house.

Its claim to fame is that once upon a time the marble seat was a hearth in one of the big Victorian houses down the road.

An ivy covered limb had fallen onto the bench.

Recently I looked across the yard to see the bench covered with English ivy.  I thought it strange.

Sug hauled away the branch and attachments to the back of the yard.

Sug kindly cleared off the fallen debris.

After removal of the limb the damage was apparent.

My task will be to design and build a new back so stay tuned for Part 2.
