A bollard 100 comprises a post 110 having a peripheral wall 112 defining an internal volume 114, a socket 120 configured to receive and support the post, and a ballast material 140 disposed within the internal volume of the post. The post and/or socket comprise a formation 116, 125 extending into the internal volume of the post, wherein the formation is configured to exert a force R1, R2 upon the ballast material 140 when the bollard receives an impact. The formation on the post may comprise an opening through which a formation on the socket extends into the internal volume of the post. The at least one formation on the socket may comprise a first portion extending from a bottom wall of the socket in a direction substantially parallel to a height of the socket. Also disclosed is a kit of parts for making said bollard.
