In Castle Park Colchester, between the Museum and
Hollytrees is a work of art by gardeners.
‘95 years ago a Mark IV tank from the First World War was
displayed on the far side of the castle.
‘It remained there until 1934, when it was “sold to a
local scrap dealer for £7 10s.”
‘This half size model has been commissioned in memory of
all those who lost their lives in The Great War.

is planted with 14,000 individual Alternantera plants.’
