This is the latest jaw-dropping creation from Barnham blacksmith and sculptor Bob Fuller.
Bob has been working on the 30ft steel crocodile for the last six months and the project is now nearing the completion.

This beast of a work of art weighs around two tonnes and will soon be appearing at Avisford Park Golf Club where several of Bob's previous sculptures reside.

His triathlete, gamekeeper and samurai warrier never fail to captivate visitors to the course and are always a talking point.

The crocodile, yet to be named, is also covered with 7,000 individual scales.

"It's just one of my crazy ideas," said Bob. "I've been a blacksmith all my life but started doing sculptures last year and they've been very popular with people."

It is hoped the two halves will be transported to Avisford Park later this month.
