A father and daughter team have forged a new landscape feature in one of Northumberland’s wildest locations.
The 25ft long steel goat has been sited near the Carter Bar lay-by at the northern head of Redesdale on the Whitelee Moor national nature reserve. Its installation by the Revitalising Redesdale Partnership, led by Natural England, marks the conclusion of a five-year project to celebrate the valley’s cultural heritage and protect its landscape and wildlife.
The goat sculpture by award-winning designer/blacksmiths Stephen Lunn and daughter Ashlee Donaldson will be officially unveiled next month. Stephen and Ashlee work at their forge in Red Row in Northumberland on sculptural metalwork projects.
