Michel Alliot (MUSH) - High Street, Eastry, Kent, CT13 0HF. - Dedicated Benches on Waymarking.com

One of the explanations I give when asked about waymarking is that we have the opportunity to record objects, such as this simple memorial bench, for a time when sadly it may disappear and no record of it survives elsewhere. This memorial bench sits forlorn outside the Bull Inn, in the High Street at Eastry. The Bull itself is no more, and is up for sale, perhaps to be converted, but it's fate is interlinked with the memorial bench.  Mr Alliot, was a French Chef who worked at the pub, and had lived in a caravan at a property behind St Mary's Church until his death.

A Memorial Plaque on the bench reads;

In Loving Memory of Michel Alliot : (MUSH) / 4/7/46  -  14/2/05 / Donated by HIS FRIENDS AT The Bull Inn.

Beneath is another plaque which reads;

LE CHEF! / a toujours  / raison

Who will now care for the bench?, will it be saved ? Here is a record of it's existence just in case.

Where is this bench located?: High Street, Eastry, Kent. Who is this bench honoring?: Michel Alliot
