Wilstead Man
I have been commissioned by Wilstead Parish Council to generate a sculpture using the subject of our farming History. Interviews with some prominent people gave me a body of text on this topic. This text is replicated in the form of a man guiding a horse drawn Scuffle or Hoe.
The hollow section of the landworker (Hossman) is going to be back pored with concrete.
The text :
The names are the largest lettering 100mm
The interview text is 60mm and 40mm (40mm text for finer detail parts of the body).

All Saints Church, Wilshamstead (Wilstead)
This church is built of very pleasantly coloured stone, which I think is fairly common in the locality. More on Wilshamstead & the church here http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=42441
The village seems to have dropped its middle "hams" on current maps being called "Wilstead", but the church signboard and the 1940s map both call it "Wilshamstead".
