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.

Lots of places to admire the planting from xx
That’s a lovely spot.
Yes. I sat there for a while admiring the planting.
Another lovely place to have a rest after wandering about.
I have some benches around gardens
I love benches in gardens. And this one had quite a few.
Nice perch. 🙂
You’re good at hunting down quite perfect benches in perfect locations.
They just call out to me. 😊
That looks a very nice place to rest awhile.
Ah, that is a bench that I recognise and have probably sat on. It does have a lovely view. 🙂
