The new carvings have been placed among trees at Bill Hill

Visitors to Bill Hill can now enjoy 12 stunning new wood carvings which depict people, animals and art from the Bronze Age period.

The new features, which can be found in monolithed trees (those where the top is removed and the trunk is left standing), are a nod to the historic significance of Bill Hill, which contains a Bronze Age round barrow at its summit - an ancient form of burial place.

The carvings were created by Andrew Frost, a tree and wood sculptor who uses chainsaws to turn wood into art. They are part of a wider project by Bracknell Forest Council to protect and showcase this beech and oak woodland, which is a 5 minute walk from Bracknell town centre.

Cllr Iain McCracken, executive member for culture, corporate services and public protection, said: “We are delighted to be able to provide these exciting new features at Bill Hill, which we hope will be experienced and enjoyed by everyone who visits there.”
