IIRC, this was raised on some yuppy "do your house up" program last
night on BBC2... IIRC, look under "Architectural Antiques" or somesuch
in the Yellow Pages... its definitly in a section that begins with "A"
anyway!! ;-)

There are dozens.

probably one of the oldest and most famous is
Walcot reclamation in Bath.

Let your fingers do the walking, try looking up yellow pages

Ronsons Reclamations, Norton Barn, Wainlodes lane, Norton Glos.

And if you're inthe Wainlodes area, just folow the road from said
reclamation place up and over the hill, you come to the Red Lion.
Its next to the river, nad the best pub in Gloucestershire IMHO.
They do real cider, yummy.

Been down there this afternoon as it happens Adrian, remembering many a
lazy afternoon as a teenager supping cider outside on the river bank.
Not today though. The river had burst its banks and the road is
completely flooded. Got some good photographs though :-)

Strictly a summer place for me. As you say lazy afternoon
by that river supping that real cider is heaven. Best place in
Gloucestershire to see the sunset. I keep meaning to
arrange with a few pals to pitch a tent in that ground behind
the pub, and have a REAL good evening one warm summer
night. Hey!, it'd be a good place for one of these "meets" I keep
hearing about on here.

You could try "Duck Antique Garden ornaments" in the Quedgeley area of
Gloucester.

The Proprietors say they do very unusual lines in metal garden furniture.

Surely not made of of railway locomotive parts, besides I thought the
Mullard hadn't been scrapped.
