Sutton Park seats and benches
Essential guide to the benches and seating dotted around Sutton Park.
Some are luxuriously appointed wooden slatted affairs comfortably positioned to let you gaze at the vistas, others might be hewn out logs where you will be fighting for seating space with wood boring insects.
Check them out here and add your own favourites.
This is like a healthy option couch potato activity.
