Description
This is a set of decorative cast iron benches, created between 1828 and 1899. The benches share the same design but come in two sizes, with five being long and four being narrow. They feature a cross and circle pattern on the seat backs, plain slatted seats, and heavy scrolled side arms. The benches are concreted to the ground.
