More Strange Statues Around the World: The Shark.

By Alex in Art on Apr 2, 2007 at 1:36 pm

The guys behind the Strange Statues around the World at haha.nu came up with a dedicated website to keep track of these strange statues. This one is The Headington Shark:

The Shark became the most famous resident of Headington when it landed in the roof of 2 New High Street (see map) on 9 August 1986.

This ordinary home (built as a semi-detached house in about 1860 but now attached by a link to a second house to the north) suddenly became the centre of world attention, and the headless shark still excites interest today.
