Theme 40 - Bench

Beauty & the Beast

I think this is the ugliest bench I have seen - and there are several of them in this beautiful location.  However, they are  ideally placed to sit and rest weary limbs after (or before?) walking the fells.

I guess they are designed to be functional and long lasting, able to withstand all that the Cumbrian weather throws at them!

It looks like it would provide a good rest for the weary hiker!

The older I get, the more beautiful even ugly benches look to me :-) Thanks for posting this one. I like it.

I kind of like it actually! Quite unusual really, as benches go - good find!

Ah, it's an age thing is it - because I really like this bench as well. Solid and well-balanced seems to me which is always attractive.
