Check out the new sculpture that will sit on the Scotland-England border

I spy with my little eye something beginning with S...

A giant new sculpture is going to be built on the border between Scotland and England.

Named the Star of Caledonia, it will be built near Gretna Green in Dumfries and Galloway and will be seen by millions of travellers as they drive into and out of Scotland.

It will stand 33m tall - that's more than eight double decker buses stacked on top of each other - and will be the largest sculpture in Scotland when it's done.

What is the Star of Caledonia?

The sculpture will light up using renewable energy so people can see it at all times of the day and night

It's not the first time this landmark to mark the border between England and Scotland has been attempted.

A competition to design the structure was won in 2011 by artist Cecil Balmond, but building it was put on hold because of funding issues.

His structure - the Star of Caledonia - represents James Clerk Maxwell, otherwise known as the 'Einstein of Scotland'.

Loads of the technology we use today relies on the ideas he came up with.

Work on the illuminated sculpture will start in March 2026 and is due to be completed by the spring of 2027.

What other sculptures can you find around the UK?

The Angel of the North is found on a hilltop in Gateshead.

The construction of the structure started in 1994 and was finished in 1998 which means it's been standing on its hill for nearly 30 years.

It's 20 metres tall with its wings reaching a span of 54 metres.

Designed by artist Antony Gormley, it's one of the most viewed pieces of art in the world with it being seen by more than one person every second!

The Kelpies have been pride of place in Falkirk for nearly 10 years.

They were designed by Scottish sculptor Andy Scott and depict a kelpie - a mythical creature from Scottish folklore than lives in lochs and can shape-shift.

The 30 metre tall structures are made from steel and Andy worked on the project for eight years.

The Stargazer can be found in Davagh Forest near Northern Ireland's Dark Sky Park

Three giant sculptures can be found on the Sperrins Sculpture Trail in Northern Ireland.

They are: Nowanois (The Storyteller), Darach (The Guardian) and Ceoldán (The Stargazer).

They were unveiled at three locations in the Sperrin area in 2023.

The trio were made by Thomas Dambo - one of the world's leading recycle artists.

The Alliance was made by Paris installation artist Jean-Bernard Metais and has been stood in Cardiff city centre since 2013.

It stands 25 metres high. That's the same as five and a half double decker buses stacked on top of each other.

Inside the hoop is a visible liquid that moves with the flow of the tide and glows at night.
