The sculptures are designed by sculptor Andy Scott and are due to be completed in October 2013. They form a dramatic gateway at the eastern entrance to the Forth and Clyde canal, and the new canal extension built as part of The Helix land transformation project. The Kelpies are a monument to horse powered heritage across Scotland.<br /> The sculptures will open to the public in April 2014. As part of the project, they will have their own visitor centre, and sit beside a newly developed canal turning pool and extension. This canal extension reconnects the Forth &amp; Clyde Canal with the River Forth, and improves navigation between the East and West of Scotland.<br /> <br /> There's been some debate in response to the video as to whether the Kelpies are in Falkirk or Grangemouth. I'm afraid I don't know but they are magnificent.<br /> Video by Alan Corrie.<br /> <br /> The music is courtesy of last.fm and features:<br /> Artist: RQTN<br /> Title: Aller Simple
