Rabbit No. 2

Alan Grimwood – Satterthwaite Village – 1984

“Alan Grimwood’s “Rabbit” is so much a part of the forest now that a request from a local playground [to have it] was turned down because the forest workers liked it where it was.” – The Slasher 1984

Presumably after this request Grimwood made a second Rabbit as “Another Grimwood sculpture of a Rabbit is sited at the children’s playground in Satterthwaite.” – Early 1984 Map

I cannot find any photographs of thisRabbi though I assume it was similar to the first.

Material: Wood

Trail: None, In Satterthwaite Village Playground

Theme: Nature

Form: Figurative – Rabbit

Maps Featured on: 1984 – 1987

Status: Removed, no remains

Alan Grimwood returned to Grizedale in 1984 to make a second rabbit. It was sited just west of the Village, in a field on the track into the forest. I can’t find any photographs or further information on this sculpture. It must have gone prior to 1989.
