Wicker / Lloyd Loom armchair, needs TLC (Southborough TN4)
I'm not quite sure of the material here - it seems to be twisted paper, so I guess it's Lloyd Loom, likely dating back to the 70s / 80s :) It's currently white but it's been painted several times. It has some damage to the front (second picture), so probably needs some TLC - either that or it might be some use in a summer house, or garden/allotment shed??

Empty half-crate / pallet, 400kg rated (Southborough TN4)
Gifted
105 x 114 x 80 cm Before I break this down for scrap wood, is it any use to anyone intact? It came with 400kg of logs on it so should be good for that weight. Note it has no side pieces on two of the sides, unlike the last one I advertised (see pic.)

Single mattress, good condition (Southborough TN4)
Expired
Approx 6'3" x 3' / 190cm x 90cm - good condition. Very old but has barely been used for about 30 years so should be very well aired (has been kept indoors.) I'm sort of resigned to this going to tip, but if anyone wants it before I get around to doing a trip, let me know!

Single bed and mattress (Southborough TN4)
Gifted
Single bed and mattress, frame is approximately 98cm wide, 202cm long, 89cm total height (base for mattress is about 30cm off the ground.) This is very old (it was my brother's bed back in the 80s!) but has been basically unused for about 30 years, so the mattress is very well aired. Obviously it may well not meet modern fire safety standards - I can go looking for a label if it's important to anyone. There is some slight damage to the wood around one of the screw holes (see 5th picture.) The head and foot frames are now detached and the frame has been stored in the (dry) garage for a few months. All screws, concealed nuts, etc are provided. The mattress has been kept inside. Ideally for minimal hassle it would be good if the frame and mattress went together, but if anyone wants just one or the other do get in touch. If I don't get a response in a week or two I'll post them again as separate items, but don't feel you have to wait until then!

Damaged chair for restoration/upcycling project etc (Southborough TN4)
Expired
This has a few broken joints and a cracked corner, so needs more TLC than we have time / energy to give it, but we think it's a nice piece of furniture otherwise and can't bring ourselves to take it to the tip! So if anyone enjoys restoring / upcycling older furniture it's all yours, would love to see it go to a good home :)

Mirror, ~ 335mm x 1150mm (Southborough TN4)
Gifted
Approx 335mm x 1150mm, in reasonable condition, there's one significant scratch that basically runs the width, but it's very thin, I don't think it would show if you weren't looking for it. Has been stored in attic for years which is reasonably dry, there's maybe a slight touch of rust I assume from some of the mounting clips. The paintwork is a little crazed / distressed but arguably that gives it character!
