A memorial plaque for someone who loved the river: a hand-carved oak branch with a hand-painted kingfisher perched on the end, reeds either side, and their name with "Gone fishing" carved beneath.
The kingfisher comes from our Kingfisher Memorial Bench. Kingfishers are rarely seen but always remembered: a flash of blue over the water, gone before you have quite registered it. On a riverside bench, a fishing lake or a garden pond, it says a great deal without many words.
Fix it to a bench that is already there by the water, or to a wall, post or gate.
Every plaque is drawn by hand for you, then carved and hand-painted in solid oak in our Mid Wales workshop and sealed for life outdoors.
The photo shows a design visualisation of this plaque. Every plaque is made to order with your own wording, and we send you a drawing to approve before we carve.
