I was on a training course this week in Goring by Sea. Coincidentally the premises where the training was held, Courtlands, contains pieces of architectural salvage from a house that was once in Twickenham, Mount Lebanon House. As it is only a few miles form Littlehampton, it was an opportunity to visit The Longest Bench and The East Beach Cafe, designed by Heatherwick Studio.
My photographs were taken on a drizzly, grey early evening, so they are not as joyous as those on the links.
I really like the way that the bench incorporates commemorative slats in to the overall design, a different take on the more customary memorial bench.
How funny I teach at a college based in Goering a couple of days a week. Think I will have to pop in to Littlehampton one lunch time.
