    Looking at the early nineties picture of the bench posted by Paul above -that cost about fifty quid -even by today's prices. Realistically after suitable investigation I believe that a suitable quality steel/timber bench could be knocked out and installed for about £3000-00 and that's full retail. Beg, steal, borrow could reduce that price considerably. The metal parts will be riveted to fall in with the period of the shelter's original construction - don't pay any attention to me I've only been riveting for 40 years. If English heritage approved the design - I envisage a steel frame with durable hardwood slats (seat and backing). If however EH demanded cast metalwork with pattern making involved-then the price could be around Vic's estimate-if you paid full retail.
