Camels catch the train


We have been researching a project for 2014 -  a sculpture trail at Stourhead the National Trust's eighteenth century landscaped garden to illustrate the effect of World War 1 on the people of the area. Many joined the Dorset Yeomanry and this is an image in the Military Museum in Dorchester showing entrained camels. The Yeomanry found themselves in Egypt.

Unintentional giant snail sculpture

Piled up outside and old quarry at Durlston Country Park Dorset are some odds and ends of rock which were never lowered by cranes down the cliff to waiting boats.  They form a weird giant snail. Nearby is a deliberate globe made of granite.
