Surrey Sculpture Society are showing an impressive 101 sculptures on the trail – and kudos to whoever designed the route as it is accessible all the way around (though just bear in mind there are a couple of loose gravelled sloping paths where wheelchairs and buggies will need a little assistance). If done the way we did, with various stops, it can be done in a comfortable 90 minutes – leaving you plenty of time to indulge in a piece of cake at the café.
The trail is well thought out and embraces some of the Anton Smit sculptures that are dotted around the entirety of the estate, again, giving us pause for thought as we compared and contrasted the skills of the South African sculptor’s enormous heads and people, versus the smaller ones such as the beautifully formed yoga figures in the Camelia Walk.
