Silent Soldier, Wycombe Way, Carterton, Oxon
One of the Royal British Legion's "Silent Soldiers" placed by a flowerbed in Wycombe Way, near its junction with Brize Norton Road. It has been sponsored by Carterton Town Council. The Silent Soldiers are near life-size silhouettes of a First World War "Tommy" cut from black dibond, which is both tough and weatherproof. The Legion's campaign was launched in 2017 in support of the Poppy Appeal to remember the sacrifices made by our Armed Forces during World War I.

These figures have proved surprisingly difficult to photograph as the black glossy surface is highly reflective. From the wrong angle they can end up as more like a self-portrait than a photo of the figure!

Flowerbed, Brize Norton Road, Carterton, Oxon
The flowerbed was provided by West Oxfordshire District Council. The floral display may have been connected with the ending of World War I in 1918, but by the time the photograph was taken it was difficult to decipher.
It can also be seen in this view:-

Ramp from Bovingdon Road to footbridge over Brize Norton Road, Carterton, Oxon
A long ramp leading to the footbridge over Brize Norton Road, which is one of the town's major roads. The footbridge and its two ramps are built on quite a large scale. Even with the green paint, it's not a structure you can easily ignore. Part of it takes up a major chunk of this scene:-
