Jaffrey, NH, Stone Mason Creates Stone People in Yard

"Drive by John Given's house, not far from the center of Jaffrey on Main Street, and you'll always get a wave.

"No, Given doesn't spend his days greeting people as they go to and from downtown, but one of his creations, known as stone man, always does.

"Stone man was the first sculpture that Given, a stone mason, created for what has slowly turned into his personal stone oasis for everyone traveling the major route between Jaffrey and Marlborough. He came up with the idea when his daughters, Lily and Carly, were young and thought it would be a fun project for them to do together."

A recent Monadnock Ledger-Transcript (Peterborough, NH) article profiled Mr. Given and his stone art work.
