Homage to the Horses
Ideas for the Featherston camp sculpture bas-relief
From what I understand there were hundreds of horses trained at the Camp. Of all those that left for the front, only 4 made it back to NZ after the War. Maybe 4 pairs of horseshoes could be included to pay homage to the huge number of animals that passed through the Camp. (Just an idea, but perhaps the horseshoes could be arranged in a cross).
