Aislaby ‘Leaf Otter’
STEVE TOMLINSON
This location is a rural oasis along the trail and a great place to sit, rest and reflect on your surroundings.
The ‘Leaf Otter’ seat, fabricated in acid-etched galvanised steel, uses the shape of an otter (often seen in this area) and is decorated with leaf patterns reflecting the natural flora found here.
