Crop
circle seen on Brent Knoll? No - don't be dotty!

Motorists
travelling along the M5 motorway near Burnham-On-Sea this week
were forgiven for thinking they'd seen a crop circle on the side
of Brent Knoll.
For
on the hillside is a collection of nine spots in the shape of
a circle or strange smiley face.
But
no-one should worry too much... the formation is the work of Bridgwater
artist Steve Apelt who's been working on an art project with kids
at Brent Knoll Primary School.
He's
repeated his stunt from last year's Somerset
Arts Week by creating an eye-catching arrangement of huge
nylon sheet spots on the southern side of the Knoll.
Each
measures nine feet in width and can be seen for miles across Somerset,
including thousands of motorists who pass along the M5 every day.
Steve
has been working with pupils in the classroom before creating
the fun smiley face shape on the hill.
