The horse

            The Kelpies are a pair of monumental steel horse-heads between the Scottish towns of Falkirk and Grangemouth. Each head is 30 metres high. The sculptures, designed by sculptor Andy Scott, represent kelpies, a shape-shifting spirit inhabiting lochs in Irish and Scottish folklore. It is usually described as a grey or white horse-like creature.
