Dog-Tooth Violet Seed - Art on the Trail
East Midlands Airport, Castle Donington

Sculpture commissioned by East Midlands Airport in 2006. Sited on the Airport Trail, see map below.

Fern - Woodthorpe Grange Park, Nottingham

Please note, this sculpture is no longer standing.  It was made from a fallen horse chestnut tree and placed in the formal gardens of Woodthorpe Grange in 2004.  The wood was not treated with any sort of fungicide or preservative, it was always planned that the sculpture would remain part of the park eco-system and gradually decay.  It stood proud (at seven feet tall) for over a decade before it fell down due to insects and fungus eating it.  It can still be seen lying in the shrubbery if you look carefully.  At time of writing (Feb 2018) there is plenty of wood left for the xylophagous insects and fungi. 
It is no longer a Pokestop.
