Big Ben, the famous clock at Britain’s Houses of Parliament, has shown up in a cornfield. Rre-created from more than 500 bales of straw, the 70 ft. sculpture weighs over 20 tons and has a working clock . And it can be recycled when it is taken down after Christmas.

What is happening here? It turns out that the local ice cream company, Snugburys, has created the clock to commemorate the creation of the original Big Ben 150 years ago. They are even selling Big Ben shaped ice cream cones to celebrate the occasion.
