The weekend retreat for a Poet is conceived as a romantic kinetic folly standing as a stone tower within the Castle moat. The Poet on arrival by rowing boat triggers a valve which releases water from within a basin beneath the water surface into the adjacent River Bewl. The basin drains over the weekend to gradually reveal two entwined fossilised Iguanodons; the perpetrators of the existing fossil footprints lying in the Castle quarry.
