I saw this on your Flickr account, Joe, but obviously I cannot comment there. I love the way the
Sculpture frames The Rock. What does the symbol of the elephant mean? I looks rather nice against the white stone.

Thanks for your very kind comment, Amelia. The elephant with the castle on its back is the coat-of-arms of Dumbarton, because Dumbarton Rock is said the resemble exactly that... an elephant with a castle on its back. The sculpture being placed at this location allows the viewer to compare the coat-of-arms on the plaque with the Rock resembling an elephant with a castle on its back.

The elephant and castle is also the badge of the local football club.

There was a pub in Dumbarton High Street called the Elephant and Castle, which the locals affectionally referred to as Nellie's. It was demolished in 2017, after standing empty for a few years.

Cheers,

Joe

Thank you, Joe. I see what you mean about the elephant.
Cheers, Amelia

You are very welcome, Amelia.

Beautiful work.
