Wynyard Woods

These woodlands are in a small villiage near Stockton on Tees at Thorpe Thewles. The old railway station has been restored and is now a Cafe and Gift shop. The railway lines run in both directions and give a pleaseant walk through the woodlands that surround. There is also a Planetaruim, small observatory, pic-nic areas and a huge playground for children. There are some interesting features as you can see below. 

Spooky Cabin, which has long been deserted











The last 3 shots above are from an artwork entitled 'Cosmic Kitchen'. The utensils all have a function that relate to astronomy. The Colander has a map of the Milky Way on it, the Large spoon aligns itself to the North Star and the measuring spoon is a sundial. If you look closely you can see the shot was taken at approximately 3:30.
