FLOCK OF GEESE AND BOY BY NIALL BRUTON

"The Boy and the Geese" serves as a historical marker for the area where it is located, a place formerly known as the "Goose's Acre." This was a piece of common land where local people would graze their geese. The sculpture vividly brings this local history to life, depicting a dynamic interaction between the boy and the birds. The geese, with their outstretched necks and assertive postures, appear to be accosting the boy, who in turn reacts with a mixture of surprise and defiance.
