The Ash Project
A major public artwork by Ackroyd & Harvey commissioned by The Ash Project is now sited in White Horse Wood Country Park, in the heart of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. These monolithic sculptural works by the internationally renowned artists are both a celebration of ash trees and memorial to the devastating effects of ash dieback on the most common tree in the Kent Downs. Visit the artwork on site until September 2020.
