The recycled elm?

Brighton's Preston Park was home to many well established elm trees before the onset of Dutch Elm Disease in 1971. Since then the UK has lost millions of trees to this killer. East Sussex now contains the only population of mature English elms in the world, there are now many more elms inside the East Sussex zone than when the disease arrived - nearly 50,000. This includes a number of large veteran elms.
I *think* this seat is made from the stump of one of the veterans that had to be felled.

This is the first outing for the Canon 40mm prime pancake lens ;-)
