The green man was carved in a tree which had been earmarked for felling


A wood carving of a green man is to unveiled at a nature reserve to celebrate its fifth anniversary.
Pupils from Wick Primary School will help complete the green man, a symbol regarded as a guardian of forests, at the Wick Golden Valley Nature Reserve.
A mature beech tree which was earmarked to be felled was used for the carving.
The sculpture was created by artist Andy O'Neill and features fish, an otter, a kingfisher and bats around the green man's face.
The six-metre trunk was saved from felling

John Morris, South Gloucestershire Council's environmental projects officer, said: "The magnificent tree was deemed to be dangerous following a tree inspection. So was felled by Lawrence Tree Services.. ( My son in Law.!!)
"So instead of felling it and using the wood for fire wood we managed to save the six metre trunk to create a stunning carving which greets people to this wonderful nature reserve."
Councillor Brian Allinson added: "This stunning piece of natural art has already attracted much interest and many compliments from visitors to Wick Golden Valley.
"[It] really enhances the environment in one of our most beautiful nature reserves."
The project took ten days to complete and was funded through a grant from Defra's Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund.
