The Kelpies: some photos

While we were with Liz and Ray in Dollar, Liz suggested we go and see The Kelpies, the newest ‘attraction’ near Falkirk, about half an hour from Dollar. 

They are amazing: 30 metres high (a distraction as you drive along the motorway!), built of steel.  The story is that they represent the horse’s role in agriculture and industry in Scotland, and the kelpies name reflects mythical transforming beasts with the strength and endurance of 10 horses.  They are placed in a new park next to the Forth and Clyde Canal. So new the visitors centre is still being finished.
