It looks great and I'll have to make a trip this weekend to test the bench.  Thank you to everyone involved for the hard work.
The plaque for the www.54DegreesNorth.co.uk sponsored arrived yesterday and has been fitted this morning.

Thank you to @Enigmawatcher for sponsoring this final bench on Market Street!

We will ask the council to spray the weeds under all benches as they seem to have omitted to do this.

That's all Market Street and Derby Way benches sponsored, refurbished and / or retreated this year by Friends of the Park.

The www.54DegreesNorth.co.uk sponsored bench was given its final coat yesterday and we're now just waiting for the plaque to be delivered.



We also completed this year's re-treating of the Market Street and Derby Way benches that we refurbished last year too.

Looks great!
The www.54degreesnorth.co.uk sponsored bench has now been fully reassembled.

It awaits a sand-down and final coat of preservative, hopefully sometime next week, followed by fitting of the dedication plaque.

I agree - Marple centre looks a good deal better as a result.

The plaque has been fitted to the McInnes Partnership sponsored bench and it is now fully completed.

The McInnes Partnership is a Chartered Account based in Marple House (above M&Co). As well as sponsoring the bench, they have done the Friends of the Park accounts for the last 13 years free of charge. Great community support! See more on their web site: http://www.mcinnes-partnership.com/

Here's a shot of the plaque and a before and after:

The hard graft on Market Street has continued today, softened by lunch at All Things Nice washed down with a beer at Sam's:

The McInnes Partnership sponsored bench on the Hollins is now fully reassembled and we just have to give it a final coat of preservative in a few days time and then fit the plaque.

Arrangements are in the final stages for the last one on Market Street but we still need sponsors for the others on the Hollins.

Here's the kind of transformation your sponsorship will achieve:
