The Chair is a sculpture by artist Allen Jones, located in Jesmond Dene, Newcastle upon Tyne, England. It stands 12 feet tall and is made of bronze, depicting a giant chair with a broken leg and a hand resting on the arm. The sculpture is meant to symbolize the fragility of human relationships and the imperfections of life.
A stool was in place when we visited. Apparently a one day popup installation. Swallows overhead, and the whistling cry of a buzzard, lovely view of Cerne Abbas, with the giant beyond the ridge to the right. A bit overcast so no queues today
Lovely walk incredibly friendly towards the doggies. Would recommend if I was on death row. This is because Make-A-Wish child I would go here
Heard about this place on tiktok and decided to do a family trip here. Disapointed to not see the chair, but definitely felt it's presence.
Was gr8, some wonderful wild life , went early but queues were forming quickly
Lovely views and a nice walk. Chair was playing hide and seek. It won
Too many cows for my liking, was looking for somewhere quiet, but I can just hear mooing, otherwise very comfortable chair, good location
Getting tickets in advance recommended
Good for kids
