Way back in 2015 – yes that really is ten years ago – I decided to post photos of the numerous benches sitting in my folders. It seemed that I was not alone and suddenly it turned into the Bench Challenge where I set a particular criterion each month and people joined in posting their bench photos. It was a lot of fun and I met a lot of wonderful bloggers through it.
This year I am returning to mark the occasion by posting a bench photo every Sunday. There will not be any particular theme set this year so it’s not really much of a challenge, but if there is anyone out there who still has a bucketful of bench photos and would like to join me, then please do so by adding a link in the comments or a link to my post in yours (a pingback) and I will happily pop along to admire.
And because I am also participating in Becky’s January Squares here is another photo – square of course- featuring these benches with their geometric shapes.

I have a rather lovely one in tomorrow’s post and I did think of linking. There are lots of garden pics too. Have a good day, hon!
I shall look out for it 😊
well this is a rather splendid bench, and am grateful you were able to square the detail. I am now on the hunt for benches, but think it might be February or March before I am sufficiently organised
I like this bench and its detail Jude
Very handsome benches.
That one squares beautifully!
And perfectly geometric too!
Yes!
An elegant bench.
Clever idea for a square photo!
I love public benches, and that one is very attractive, Jude.
Best wishes, Pete. x
Two birds with one stone! Definitely a win. Lovely bench.
I think missing your bench challenge is why Cee suggested that I start the Pull up a Seat Challenge. I absolutely adore the details of that wooden bench. The shapes go so well with the swirls in the wood grain.
I want one, with my name on, after I die. In Padstow, of course. Not just yet though.
