Whelan's Garden Ornaments, Chapel Street, Sheerness

I have never seen so many garden ornaments as at this place in Sheerness. This is just a small section and the yards full of concrete ornaments occupy the whole of the west side of Chapel Street in Blue Town, Sheerness. There were dozens of windmills, all with their sails turning vigorously, and even more statues. Doubtless you would need a very stately home or a lot of bravado to put the two centurions on your gate posts. See http://www.whelansgardenornaments.com/
