Willen Labyrinth
Willen Labyrinth by Neil Higson (1988)
Another piece of landscape architecture, Willen Labyrinth is a turf maze based on an enlarged version of the Saffron Walden Rosicrucian Maze. At its centre is an oak tree and in each of the four lobes is a bronze roundel designed by sculptor Tim Minett. The labyrinth provides a space for quiet contemplation, encouraging individuals to wander along a weaving path to the central space to appreciate the natural world (symbolised by the oak tree).
Tim Minett now retired artist who studied at the Royal College of Art. Neil Higson was the Landscape Architect for Milton Keynes Development Corporation and spearheaded much of the city's beloved landscapes including the Tree Cathedral at Newlands and much of Campbell Park.
The four bronze roundels located in each lobe of the Labyrinth.
