Prince William and Kate's Norfolk neighbours Lord Cholmondeley and his wife Rose Hanbury install 100 life-size iron statues resembling naked people by Angel of the North artist Sir Antony Gormley in their grounds

The neighbours of the Prince and Princess of Wales have installed 100 life-size cast-iron statues resembling naked people on the grounds of their stately home.

The strange figures have recently been spotted in the grounds of the Marquess and Marchioness of Cholmondeley's Houghton Hall.

The 6ft-tall figures with genitals on display have been embedded into the ground as part of Angel of the North artist Sir Antony Gormley's £22 a ticket exhibition Time Horizon.

'We have this wonderful park and it is ideal for sculpture,' explains Lord Cholmondeley, 63, aka film-maker David Rocksavage.
