Hardworking Horse Sculpture

The “Hardworking Horse” sculpture at Daysdale, situated in the picnic area across from the Exchange Hotel, had a plaque unveiled on 27th March 2021 in honour of the late Len Hanrahan, a local farmer who lost his 40 year-long battle with cancer in 2020. Len’s motto, featured on the plaque, reads “Coming together as a community brings people together”.

The metal horse sculpture was created by Doug Monroe. This sculpture, along with Jimmy Hewson’s “Man on the Pump” in the same vicinity, give an artist’s impression of how Daysdale’s water used to be pumped in the late 19th century.
