The Fossor, which takes its name from the Latin for "digger", is the most significant of the sculptures around the JCB site at Rocester. The piece is made entirely of digger parts and is a powerful representation of JCB. At the time of its creation in 1979 it was the largest steel sculpture in Europe.
