Oak Tree Sculpture
This ingenious sculpture by Mark Goldsworthy of
Bungay was commissioned in 1998 by North Walsham
Town Council. It has been carved from the trunk of a
120 year old Oak which was diseased and due to be
felled. The work was carried out through the summer
of 1999 and unveiled in September of that year. It
commemorates the Battle of the Peasants’ Revolt at
North Walsham in 1381, and the Agricultural Workers’
Union being founded in the town in 1906. It depicts
these two historical occasions, ordinary man’s struggle
for justice and rights, against the odds.
The ‘totem-pole-esque’ sculpture of rustic figures
expresses ordinary people, striving towards a common
goal, each with their own place in society, and using
characters from the different generations.
