Or do my eyes deceive me? I'm sure they weren't there when I whizzed down Crouch Hill on the bus at the weekend.

    No, they've gone.

    I noticed it too yesterday, so perhaps they've only just been taken down. If the builders still have them lying there, maybe we should organise to make a bid for them and have them re-erected somewhere?

    On the Stroud Green Road/UTP junction, perhaps?

    Oh, they'd look splendid in the park wouldn't they? Or down on the Parkland Walk.

    I notice last week that they had vanished when the Dixon site construction arrangements were being put in place. They were made by a German artists called Friedal. Shortly after making theses he was commissioned to create a garden space around a field maple which included sculptured animals and figures at St Aidan's Primary School on Stapleton Hall Road. (You can see the Little Palace garden from the road through the fence) Nice old man and a bit of a whiz with a chain saw!

    Can anybody be arsed to find out how to contact the developers and find out what happened to them? A bit too big to put in a skip....

    Nothing says "nick me" quite like an ornamental totem pole.

    They were about 30 feet high weren't they? You'd need a crane!

    I would tear them from the ground with my rippling biceps.

    Im with Krappy on this, think if they have no plans to put them elsewhere in the area we have to try and liberate them.

    What is the worst we could get nicked for a bit of rescue and recycle guerilla gardening ?

    Maybe it has ran away to rescue the Totem poles.
