Year of the Dragon

Goat

March - Gareth

A statue, set into a wall, of a man and a goat. The goat is on its hind legs and a sugar lump has been balanced on its nose.
In 1919 an American student staying at Lacock Abbey, near Chippenham, put a sugar lump on the nose of this statue of a goat as a joke. Not only did the statue's owner leave it there, it has been regularly replaced ever since.
