Kelpies
Kelpie - a water spirit of Scottish folklore, typically taking the form of a horse and reputed to delight in the drowning of travellers.
The Kelpies are horse-head sculptures standing next to the extension of the Forth and Clyde Canal. The sculptures were designed by Andy Scott and were completed in October 2013. They form a gateway at the eastern entrance to the Forth and Clyde Canal, and the new canal extension built as part of The Helix land transformation project. The Kelpies are a monument to horse powered heritage across Scotland. Built of structural steel with a stainless steel cladding, The Kelpies are 30 metres high and weigh 300 tonnes each and form the largest equine sculpture in the world.
The site has become a major tourist attraction and was very busy when I visited. The various tea rooms were very welcome after walking down from Falkirk.
