Fixing of the Exeter Road Bench

The bench is now back in place and safe as it was damaged

Enquires

What Happened

The Bench was originally placed along Exeter Road, in Exmouth to mark the reopening of the local road. The Cornish granite bench was however recently reversed into by a lorry delivering flowers during the Britain in bloom event. 

The accident caused both legs of the bench to be broken just above the footing thankfully only leaving a surface scuff on one of the seat beams.

The scuff was worked off the granite with wet polishing tooling and then run over on all the other smooth surfaces to clean off signs of weathering before repainting. 

We repainted the blue paint with 3 coats to withstand the weather better than the previous paint had.
