The Kelpies are a pair of monumental steel horse-heads located in the Helix park between the Scottish towns of Falkirk and Grangemouth but the Kelpies themselves are situated in Grangemouth. They stand next to the M9 motorway and form the eastern gateway of the Forth and Clyde Canal, which meets the River Carron here. Each head is 30 metres (98 ft) high.
The sculptures, which represent kelpies, were designed by sculptor Andy Scott and were completed in October 2013.[1] An unveiling ceremony took place in April 2014.[2] Around the sculptures is an area of parkland known as The Helix.
