From Elm trees to Statues

We moved on to the town of Truro where we stopped at the big Atlantic Superstore to by groceries and to see the sights in the town centre. These turned out to be a bit of a none- event as the place was deserted. We did spot these huge carvings along the street. Apparently they were large elm trees that got a blight and started to die. The town was reluctant to chop them out so they cut them down to an appropriate height and fashioned them into these carvings. The town has 30 or so carved images
