Tell us: have you bought – or sold - a church pew?

Churches, abbeys and cathedrals have been selling off their pews and we would like to know if you have bought one. Why did you want a pew and what have you done with it: is it a central feature in your home or garden?

Are you a business that bought pews from churches and sold them on? Are there lots of customers eager to buy pews? What’s the oldest pew you’ve sold and did it have a story behind it?
