Meet Trolliver- the bridge dwelling rascal who has gone for a wander. He's full of mischief, noisy burps, silly farts and unexpected surprises!
Trolliver will be popping into the Woodland Centre on Saturday 8th August. You might even see him around town too - if the morris dancers entice him out of the woods!

The Wild Beasts Of Silly are a chaotically good walkabout act. Armed with squeaking chickens and a pocket full of stupidity, these beasts welcome all into the wonderful carelessness of acting foolish.
Expect the unexpected as their oversized charm brings joy to all who dare to act silly.
The Wild Beasts will be roaming Saltburn on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th August, including stopping by the Woodland Centre.
