Glenkiln Reservoir Sculptures 2 NX 838 785 Walk back to the car park and carry on beside the reservoir for about ½ mile until you come to a metal gate where a track forks away from the lane to the SW. Above on the skyline is a Henry Moore cross, I’m not sure of access as it is over fields. However just up the track you come to another Henry Moore sculpture – the King and Queen. This sits overlooking the reservoir and is well positioned.

to the rough track just below and carry on uphill, through a gate. There
is a standing stone here but it was a quagmire to reach it and my photo
was out of focus. Carry on for about ½ mile and where the path bends
towards some trees there is a sculpture hidden in a small copse of pines
nearer the path.
The bronze statue of Mary called The Visitation by Sir Jacob Epstein among the pines. |

The track carries on to meet a tarmac lane. Turn right here (east) and head back towards the reservoir. On the way there is another Henry Moore sculpture on the right. This is called Two Piece Reclining Figure and is a fibre glass cast.
