Fairies of the Chase

Cannock Chase
Fairy tree
14th November 2010

Perhaps one of the more unusual sculptures in Cannock Chase is the 'fairy tree'.

Deep in the heart of the woodland, somewhere near charismatic wood, lived a family of faries, who sang as loud as the could....
Ishmael - if you read this .... sorry!

The tree has many doors through which the faries pass at night. We were oh so quiet but we didn't see any - we just saw their washing hanging out to dry in the cool autumn wind.

Sadly its not my work - I just stumbled across it. My guess is a sharp chisel and mallet and lot of patience!

Was the tree dead before it was carved?
