The benches on the Embankment are an important part of Chelsea’s riverside heritage but they are in an appalling state. If woodwork exposed to the weather is not properly maintained, it becomes de-natured and eventually has to be replaced.
These benches are the responsibility of TfL.
The Chelsea Society has asked our GLA member, Cllr. Tony Devenish, to get the necessary maintenance done as soon as possible, and we are advised that the work has been programmed.
