Oak bench

A mid 17th century oak bench; the rectangular moulded top above channel-moulded frieze; raised on four baluster-turned legs, with moulded stretchers and high block feet; branded with the initial I; English, c.1640; additional screws under top., Previously identified as a pair with 1993-31/332 but this seems unlikely given that the two are not the same size.
