Hartleigh Estate 8t Wheel Barrow Playground, Aintree Close, Clyde
A massively large wheelbarrow, which is 6.4m tall and 15m wide, does look like it weighs 8 tonnes and took a 100 tonne crane to place it into position. It is a whimsical urban art installation that played on the estate's past as a vegetable market garden - and super-sized it so it wouldn't get lost against the 5ha wetland reserve adjoining it.
This is part sculpture / part playground and a birds nest swing should swing from one handle but unfortunately it had been stolen when we visited.
