I thought 'Invicta' would be more appropriate, being in Kent.

If it looks like the tv model it is like something a kid would do, at 50 metres tall it will look grotesque

It would look better without the headcollar - why the headcollar? The famous white horses on the chalk downs don't have headcollars on Other than that I think it's a great idea

In an ideal world it would be a beautiful grey arab, but at least its a horse!
And if the French think its a new restaurant sign then to them!

I love it........In the South West we have a wicker man.....not large enough for me, he burnt down once. Now re-built the birds take bits of his head away in the springthey have also built a moat around him to stop the arsonists.

Lucky South East to have a creative thinker to put such a big horse up, at least it looks like a horse. Wonder what it will cost?

Like the idea, but it looks like an oversize child's farm toy. Also not sure about the headcollar as they always look more beautiful without.

saw the to scale model on the news, it is not pretty, maybe cute if it stays under 12" tall but at 50 feet god its one of those things that make you embarrassed to be english, what next the worlds largest elastic band ball in sussex or the largest ever white stilletto looming over basildon .
