Big Friendly Wallace at the New Inn at Blagdon, where it's estimated the trail has brought in as many as 600 extra visitors a week
GROMIT Unleashed 3 has been a huge success since beginning on June 30.
The 53-sculpture trail spans nearly 50 miles from Cheddar Gorge in the south to Slimbridge in the north.
Towards the southern end of the trail, The New Inn in Blagdon, North Somerset, boasts the statue with perhaps the best view of all.
