Interplanetary Craft!!

The Lock Inn at Maunsel Lock, North Newton with canal boats and people enjoying a canalside walk.

The Somerset Space Walk is a 14 mile stretch alongside the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal with sculptures of the Sun, at Maunsel Lock, and it's planets, with one set of planets in each direction. The planets are in the correct order and proportionally the correct sizes and distance apart. Built on a scale of 1:530,000,000 it was designed to give some concept of the vastness of the solar system

So here we clearly have some Interplanetary Craft, although calling out the occupants may just be a waste of time as they are probably in the pub!!!

What else could I add but the Capenters, (clearly needed to keep the craft in good condition) and

Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft

I note that you chose the pub side of the complex, pure coincidence I'm sure ;-)

What a great idea, this "planetary path." But I imagine they seem lost in the countryside... HBM Carol.

A lovely image of this interplanetary canal, Carol. As you noted on my image of the "Solar System drive" some months ago, it's a very similar concept. HBM and have a good week.
