Shire Horses sculptures (1), Kilkenny Lane Country Park, Carterton, Oxon
These imposing life-size sculptures of two shire horses are by artist Sophie Thompson of Milton-under-Wychwood, Oxfordshire. In the past shire horses were used in this area when it was farmland. The sculptures have been installed to reflect the history of the country park. The sculptures were unveiled in June 2011 by the former Prime Minister, David Cameron, who at the time was the Member of Parliament for the local constituency of West Oxfordshire.
