    Tips

    I didn't expect to find a sculpture linked to Star Wars in this tiny little village outside Petersfield and neither did I expect a stack of books sculpture to be linked to Start Wars...

    This sculpture, which is one of several on the Shipwrights Way, commemorates several past residents of Steep, including Alec Guinness (well known as the original Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars), John Wyndham (of Day of the Triffids fame) and the poet, Edward Thomas.
