This Is My Glasgow May 23

While many other new town public art installations across Scotland have disappeared over the years, the Stonehouse Elephants have survived. In 2022, they were repaired and decorated by a number of artists, including Bonnar, who did the one in the foreground.

The Stonehouse Elephants. Created by the artist Stan Bonnar in the 1970s, they were part of the first phase in the construction of the Stonehouse New Town project to the southeast of Glasgow. However, within a year, the development was scrapped with only a single road, the houses along it and four elephant sculptures having been completed.
