Working near Frensham in Surrey, I build Windsor Chairs by hand. I am told that the chairs are comfortable to sit in as well as beautiful to look at.

Look out for my sign on The Reeds Road, Tilford, next to the garden centre. Don't drive too fast, or you'll miss it. Hope to see you on #PierrepontFarm for @surreyartists #openstudios #windsorchairs

I'll be in the #OctagonRoom of @Orleanshg in #Twickenham for the #MeetTheMakers event on the afternoon of Sunday July 22nd from 12.30-4.00pm. This is a chance to see & buy the work of the artists concerned. Also #artist #JillStorey, #ceramicist #CharlotteStockley. #windsorchairs

My next project will be to make two versions of a #rockingchair , one with arms and one without. Coming soon, am doing a test run of this first to make sure it works ok. @surreyartists #windsorchairs

A fanback chair. You can mix these with the double bow chairs to make a dining set, or just use on their own. They have a nice comfortable seat with good lumbar support. @surreyartists #saos #venue100 open Fri-Sun 2-17 June 11am-5pm

Sid & Sally with their 6 cygnets by the bridge on the Wey at Pierrepont. They like this spot and are often there feeding. They're often unmoveable from the spot, even when a horse and rider want to get through the ford apparently.
