The Cwmbran Giant

Peter Nicholas, a Gower-based sculptor, said his work was a "Millennium Statement". 

The Giant is carrying a young child out of the water and walking into the Town centre.

He said : " The head of the child is impressed into the main figure like a coin. They are indivisible, it is the old into the new ".
