NO LONGER IN SITU. This work stood until 2001 next to a tree stump in a clearing on the eastern side of the wood, not far from where This Is The Future by Bram Arnold is now sited.

Jon Mills created a modern twist on the age-old idea of the forest as a place of mystery with this 25 foot tall, zinc sprayed, mild steel Bell Tower. Magical and fantastical, the Bell Tower crept towards the sky as if part of a child's fairy tale. Withholding the potential to be an entrance point to an undiscovered world, the forest becomes a place of enchantment. The piece was mysterious both in its presence and its purpose.
