Memorial Benches – Handmade Wooden Tributes
Bespoke Carved & Engraved Memorial Benches
At Free Range Designs, we create beautiful wooden memorial benches that honour loved ones through craftsmanship, creativity, and care.
Each bench is handmade from durable hardwoods such as oak and Douglas fir — chosen for their strength, warmth, and ability to withstand the seasons.
Our designs combine natural beauty with personal meaning. Whether engraved with a heartfelt message, adorned with carved wildlife, or painted with joyful colour, every memorial bench tells a unique story — a celebration of life, love, and remembrance.

Personalised Memorial Benches with Plaques & Carvings
Each piece is made to order in our Snowdonia workshop and can be personalised in countless ways — from engraved text and brass plaques to hand-carved motifs, animals, and portraits.
Our clients often ask for designs that reflect the personality or passions of the person remembered — whether that’s a favourite animal, hobby, or saying.
A personalised bench becomes more than furniture; it’s a lasting tribute that invites reflection, conversation, and connection.
Durable & Sustainable Craftsmanship
We use locally sourced Welsh oak and Douglas fir, working with the natural grain and character of each piece.
Our memorial benches are made using traditional joinery and finished with eco-friendly oils for longevity. They’re suitable for gardens, parks, schools, churchyards, and community spaces — anywhere a moment of peace is welcome.
A Place to Remember
Each memorial bench offers a quiet place to rest and remember.
Installed in a private garden, a woodland clearing, or a school playground, they stand as lasting symbols of love, gratitude, and memory.
We also work with schools and community groups to create commemorative benches celebrating friendship, learning, and shared values.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Memorial Benches
What types of wood do you use for your memorial benches?
We primarily use durable hardwoods like oak and Douglas fir, chosen for their beauty, strength, and suitability for year-round outdoor use.
Can I personalise the bench with a message or design?
Absolutely. Every bench is made to order and fully customisable — from heartfelt messages and poetry to carved animals, sports, flowers, or even cartoon characters. We’ll work closely with you to create something meaningful and completely unique.
How long does it take to make a memorial bench?
Our benches are individually handcrafted, so please allow around 4–6 weeks from order to delivery. If you have a special date in mind, just let us know.
Will the bench withstand the weather?
Yes. Our benches are built for the outdoors and will weather beautifully over time. A little seasonal care with outdoor wood oil helps keep them at their best.
Do you deliver across the UK?
Yes, we deliver to all parts of the UK. Benches arrive securely packaged and ready for installation.
Can I install a bench in a park, garden, or public place?
You can! Many customers install our benches in public or community spaces. While we don’t offer installation ourselves, we can guide you on how to fix your bench securely into place.
Do you offer memorial benches for schools, teams or groups?
We do. We often create group memorials or commemorative benches for schools, sports clubs, charities and more — including logos, mascots, and group dedications.
How should I care for a memorial bench?
A wipe-down every now and then and an annual coat of wood oil will keep your bench looking lovely. Care instructions are included with each bench.
