This striking sculpture is in the middle of the busy roundabout at the junction of Bronze Age Way (A2016) and Picardy Manorway in Belvedere. It was created by Scottish sculptor Andy Scott who brought his specially commissioned steel statue of a gipsy cob horse down in pieces from his Glasgow studio at the beginning of 2011, stopping in Telford for the millions of steel pieces which make up the statue to be galvanised. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2314583 for another impressive horse sculpture by Andy Scott, this time in Glasgow.
