A Green Man in his fernery. Carved by Andrew Frost; planted by the Amber Valley Conservation Volunteers. This is a really lovely little grove, and had I not been busily being digested alive by the insect life, I’d have loved to sit here awhile. According to the sign, they chose to have a green man carved for this site because of his theme of life, death, and rebirth connecting to this site, spoiled by quarrying and tipping, now being recolonized by plants and trees, and reborn as the National Tramway Museum and Crich Tramway Village.
