Eye Michael's Gate
From the descriptive sign, believe what you will:
The Michael Ley Line runs from St Michael's Mount in Cornwall, passing through sacred sites such as Glastonbury Tor and the Avebury stone circle, it sweeps through Southern England in a west/east direction up to Bury St Edmunds and then finally on to Hopton before heading out to sea.
In the 1980s it was discovered that the Michael Line intertwined with the Mary Line bringing together two distinct paths of the earth's energy. Together these Lines are sometimes known as the Dragon or Serpent Line.
The Mary Line passes through Botesdale and the Michael Line runs from Thornham Magna to Eye, travelling through the gate of this sculpture. The Line also passes through other sites in Eye including the Castle, Church and Priory ruins before continuing its journey on to Hoxne.
The sculpture represents two birds; the White Eagle found at the top of the crest for the Borough of Eye, and a Swan commemorating the Black Swan public house of which this car park was once a yard.
It was created using two halves of one oak tree from Burgh-next-Aylsham in Norfolk and a piece of sweet chestnut from Copperas Wood in Essex.
