The Sheep

Wooden Sheep by Luke Chapman (2021)

With their smiling faces and lifelike carving, the sheep are already a favourite at Great Linford Manor Park. They were created by artist Luke Chapman. 

The sheep are situated where they would have grazed historically, alongside cattle, in Great Linford Manor's wider estate parkland. The formal gardens of the Manor were separated from the farmland by a ditch called a ha-ha. 

You can find the sheep at What3Words location blanking.weeks.plant.
