Visitor Information

Stick Man

Our larger-than-life Stick Man, who you'll find at the start of our Stick Man Trail, will be taking a well-earned break until 16 November and won't be accessible to view during this time.  The Stick Man Trail will remain fully accessible over this period, and all other carvings will be available to view along the route. 

The Arboretum is home to over 400 thought-provoking memorials, each with a story to be discovered.

The memorials are diverse in nature, rich in symbolism and represent a broad population of society, from military associations and charities to the emergency services, fraternity groups and individuals. Each year new memorials are added so there's always something new to see.
