Street Furniture in Harlesden Town Centre


One of the lacks in Harlesden Town Centre is in street furniture, which is particularly important for older people. Above is a fairly good example of a bench that I photographed in The Cut. I understand that Harlesden Town Centre lost a lot of its street furniture because it was used by ne'erdowells. The above bench is obviously designed to discourage this.

Hi James, great point, it's a shame as street furniture can really benefit residents and visitors, allowing them to rest or admire the view, and they can also add character to an area. At Furnitubes we have a large range of DDA compliant seats with various arm combinations available to prevent people lying on them. Our Lambeth seating range also has the end arm removed so people an manoeuvre in and out of the seat easily: http://www.furnitubes.com/seating/recycled-plastic-slats-metal-seating/lambeth-cast-ductile-iron-recycled-plastic-seat-4.
