Used high quality timber (Yateley GU46)
Cladding and part of a window frame (the yellow piece) removed from house. Most dates from 1969 and the original quality is something impossible to find now. Has been deteriorating somewhat outside for a while but is still sound - I couldn't bring myself to throw it away, but realise I'm not going to use it. Cladding is 3/4" thick by 5" pitch (approx. 5 7/8" overall). Longest piece is approx. 3.3m long. Frame piece is approx. 2 3/4" by 6 1/2" and is 1.56m long. Sorry, I can't help with transport! PLEASE INCLUDE A PHONE NUMBER IF INTERESTED!

Stairgate - Babydan super narrow (University Area RG1)
This stairgate was given to us some time ago but we did not need it after all. (We expected a visitor who did not need a gate) It is super narrow: to fit a space between 63 and 69.5 cm /24.8 - 27.3 ins. Second photo shows the specs. It is in good condition except that we have never had the fittings for one of the four corners. This can be replaced, as advised by Babydan/Safetots: It seems a pity to take it to the tip if it could be useful to someone again.
