Sleights holiday 4
Also dotted around the Danby Lodge estate were some 'talking sculptures', the idea being that you pressed a button on a box to hear some of the stories linked to the area. I must confess I forgot to note the identity of the rather kind looking chap (and I didn't press the buttons to hear the stories as, being deaf, such activities aren't much use to me!)
In the gardens around Danby Lodge centre, I found Lady Downe, the lady of the manor (rather piercing eyes!):
and a gamekeeper, his hunting gun over his arm.
An innovative way to pass on information!
ReplyDeleteYes, Lady Dunn looks scary with those eyes! Sculptor should have done a better job, she might not have been that fearsome at all!
ReplyDeleteI bet they have interesting stories to tell.
ReplyDeleteGood sculptures.
