Wooden Garden & Memorial Benches

Beautiful. Sustainable. Bespoke.

Benches of Distinction

Our wooden garden and memorial benches embody our pursuit of perfection. They combine beauty and longevity, offering not just a seat, but an enduring investment in craftsmanship that enriches your garden for generations.

Handmade in the Cotswold’s

In our Cotswold workshop, our master artisans handcraft each bench to order from the finest materials. They hand shape every element with meticulous care, using traditional pegged mortise and tenon joints to ensure exceptional strength and timeless elegance. Each bench reflects not only skill, but also the artistry that defines Oxford Planters.

Tailored to Your Vision

Because every customer and every outdoor space is unique, we tailor each bench to your specifications. Choose from hand-selected, FSC-accredited oak or iroko, both of which mature gracefully, developing a natural silver patina over time. For those seeking colour and extraordinary resilience, we offer Accoya flawlessly finished in the bespoke shade of your choice.

A Personal Touch

Our memorial benches also provide the opportunity to include a personalised plaque/ engraving, creating a lasting tribute to loved ones. In this way, your bench becomes not only a functional piece of furniture, but also a meaningful heirloom that connects memory, artistry, and place.

The Dyffryn Bench™

The Dyffryn Bench™

The Dyffryn Bench™ – Heritage Reimagined

Specially commissioned by the National Trust, the Dyffryn Bench™ embodies heritage, artistry, and timeless design. Inspired by visionary Edwardian landscape architect Thomas Mawson, this striking bench draws from his celebrated work at Dyffryn Gardens in the Vale of Glamorgan, where he pioneered some of Britain’s most iconic landscapes.

Inspired by a Master of Design

Oxford Planters reinterprets Mawson’s bold, architectural aesthetic with modern precision. Taking influence from his original 1904 catalogue, we crafted the Dyffryn Bench™ to echo his passion for marrying architectural form with the beauty of planting.

Crafted with Authenticity and Presence

Our artisans hand-build each bench with oversized arms and legs, creating a commanding presence and sculptural strength. The result is a true heirloom, a piece that unites history with contemporary craftsmanship.
