Gumnut at the entrance to the Fairy Woods
‘Gumnut’ is by Boddy Buchanan, 2018. According to a sign nearby:
‘Gumnut’ was inspired by the adventures of political activist Thomas Muir who lived in this area in the late 18th Century. Formed of cast concrete, the sculpture mimics the shape of a eucalyptus seedpod, or as Australians call them, gumnuts. Convicted of sedition for advocating political reform, Muir was transported to Australia. As a prisoner, and product of the Scottish Enlightenment, Muir took notes on, amongst other things, local flora and fauna – an aspect of his history that is understandably less well known. Suburban East Dunbartonshire is now filled with ornamental eucalyptus trees; ‘Gumnut’ celebrates the fact that Thomas Muir was possibly the first person from this area ever to see one.
