Rest a while

Benches commissioned from Norman Cox & partners have been installed in the orchard. Made of English oak and untreated they will weather well and change colour over time. Much more informal seating (huge logs) has been placed around the orchard, mainly underneath the large willow tree which is proving very popular for great den making. Three compost bins have also been installed alongside the allotment fence. And finally, the interpretation board designed by Nature Signs in Devon  has been installed next to the path.  You can't miss it as it says "you are here".

We are very grateful to Biffa Award and North Wessex Downs AONB for funding these projects as part of the Community Orchard.
