Roller blind 195cm width 160cm drop (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
This was from Blinds2Go. I ordered the wrong size, and they're made to measure, so I couldn't send it back. It's made to fit a recess 195cm wide and 160cm deep. You could probably fit it outside a recess that's perhaps 10cm or more narrower. And it will be OK in a window less than 160cm deep. The colour is ochre, and shades from a lighter colour at the top, as shown o the one on my door, in the second photo. How it fits in the recess is shown on the patterned one in another window.

Single futon (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
Single futon with yellow mattress cover. This was bought from Dunelm 2 years ago. The model, called Mito, is still available on their website if you want to check dimensions. This has only been slept on for a week or two, and I found it quite comfortable. It's been used a lot as a chair, and the cover is a bit grubby.

Gifted

Gifted
Wood-effect MDF (or similar) bookcase 203cm x 80cm x 28cm. A few marks on one shelf, and what look like damp marks right at the bottom of the sides. It should come apart, but I can't do it. Previous owner may have glued the top, middle and bottom shelves.

Two wooden cupboard doors (Causeway Head S17)
Expired
A bit of a longshot, but I wondered if anyone can use these. 2 Shaker style cupboard doors. I've had to replace them because the joints have come apart slightly, so the doors no longer fit the cupboards (one photo shows the worst bit). I think they're solid pine (one photo shows the hinge holes cut into the wood). 895mm high, 500 mm wide. .

Concrete tiles (I think) (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
23 concrete tiles, about 17" square. I've been told they'd have been used to roof a shed, perhaps.

2 old water butts (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
About 85cm high, 50cm diameter. One has a blocked tap, but that might be fixable, or you could put a new tap in. No lids, I'm afraid

Old lampost (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
This old lamppost was in my front garden when I moved in 2 years ago. It was connected up to the mains with a light bulb inside. I've just had it dug up, and I'm hoping there's someone who'd like to take it away! It looks like the top got a bit bent when it was laid on the ground, but I expect it'll bend back.

Dining table (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
Mid-century (my brother bought it second hand in the 60s) wooden (oak?) dining table with extension leaf. Length 130cm (175cm extended), width 81cm, height 73cm. The legs attach with 2 screws on each one, so easy to transport. A little bit wobbly, but probably just needs a bit of gluing and maybe new or different screws. It was varnished about 40 years ago and now has a few dints, scrapes and marks.
