Rupert Bear Carving - Linford Wood, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, UK - Outside Wooden Display Carvings on Waymarking.com

The wood's name derives from an Anglo Saxon Village and the Parish of Great Linford. The woods located here cover approximately 100 acres. It is a remnant of the ancient forest that covered the country more than 5000 years ago. The wood is designated for conservation, wildlife, forestry and recreation.

Although it is only half a mile from Milton Keynes City Centre, with over 30,000 people living within one mile of it, Linford Wood is a real woodland, rich in wildlife - an island of semi-natural habitat in a sea of modern development.

The wooden carving makes use of an old tree stump. Rupert bear is carved into one side and is brightly painted. A badger is also painted on the other side and its head protrudes from underneath the stump. There is also a stoat on the top of the stump with beady eyes. It is signed with a carved name of 'Jack'.
