About

Always accessible and always free since 1980, the Wells Dinosaur Haven is a backyard woodland garden full of handmade, lifesize friendly dinosaur sculptures. You only need to ask permission at the door to walk through this private setting. There are often new dinosaurs being built, so you might even get a chance to meet and chat with the artist, Jeff “Fish” Wells. 

Know Before You Go
