Reclaimed Keruing timber from Southend Pier took pride of place in the Back to Nature Garden at RHS Chelsea 2019 – co-designed by Andrée Davies and Adam White in collaboration with HRH the Princess of Wales. A central feature of the celebrated garden was a woodland walkway, built by carpenter Jonny Briggs, a graduate of the Princes Foundation. After visiting our timber yard in Bulphan he selected timber reclaimed from the pier – attracted to the beautiful character, created by the hundreds of thousands of visitors who’ve tread the boards since the timber was installed on the pier in the 1980s. The garden, including the reclaimed walkway was displayed at RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival 2019, before it was moved onto RHS Garden Wisely in Surrey.
