Throughout 2020 Ben Wilson, famous for his miniature artworks created on discarded chewing gum, has been creating pictures along the Parkland Walk. Each tiny piece of art is a reflection of the character and history of the Parkland Walk with brightly coloured animals and plant life and references to its past as a railway line. The project has been funded through crowd funding and attracted just short of a hundred donations.

If you've ever noticed any of the brown numbered marker posts along the side of the path then hunt around the immediate area and see if you can find one of Ben's paintings. Each post has a picture nearby. You won't need to stray off the path to find them. Ben has made some easier to find than others. There are 17 marker posts in all but Ben has created many other pictures along the way. Keep your eyes peeled and you'll soon become familiar with the type of locations where you can expect to find others. We're not giving away any clues as to where these others are! If you can access the Google map on our website via a mobile device, the locations of the marker posts are also shown with a leaf logo.
