Victorian Pitch Pine Railway Bench – Halstead’s Makers, Todmorden
A beautiful and rare Victorian-period railway bench crafted from solid pitch pine. This long, wide, and exceptionally comfortable bench features a folding backrest, allowing the back support to be reversed—an ingenious and seldom-seen design detail from the era.
Made by Halstead’s Makers of Todmorden, this piece boasts a stunning aged patina and exceptional craftsmanship. Underside joinery is visible—a rare and notable detail—adding to its authenticity and character.
With signs of wear consistent with its age and use, this bench tells a story, making it not only a functional seating option but also a piece of historical charm and industrial heritage.
