Our Poplar Elephant has become something of a landmark in Marks Tey, particularly in the winter when he freezes.
He regularly makes it into the National newspapers and we even have a hotline telephone number to ring when he’s frozen! He is also very popular on our Facebook page.
During the winter we regularly have customers taking photos of their children and families in from of him.
Our Poplar elephant is an African (pictured top and middle). Below is an Indian ready for transportation to Indian Knights restaurant in Chelmsford in June 2013.
The elephants are made of bronze and are part of a range of finely detailed, realistic, life-size bronze animal statues.
