- Glenkiln Sculpture Park was a sculpture landscape in the historic county of Kirkcudbrightshire in Dumfries and Galloway, south-west Scotland. After one of the bronze statues was stolen all the statues except the Glenkiln Cross and reclining figures have been removed. It comprised six sculptures placed in a moorland setting around Glenkiln Reservoir. The sculptures were located around 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) north-west of Shawhead, and 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) west of the town of Dumfries. Between 1951 and 1976, local landowner Sir William "Tony" Keswick (grandson of William Keswick) assembled a collection of works by Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, and Jacob Epstein. Keswick worked with the artists in siting their works in a natural landscape, and commissioned works. On 13 October 2013, the BBC reported that Standing Figure had been stolen. All the sculptures except "Glenkiln Cross" have been removed for security reasons on police advice and are no longer available to view. The sculptures formerly on show are:
* Saint John the Baptist (1878) by Auguste Rodin
* Visitation (1926) by Jacob Epstein
* Standing Figure (1950) by Henry Moore
* King and Queen (1952–53) by Henry Moore
* Upright Motive No. 1: Glenkiln Cross (1955–56) by Henry Moore
* Two Piece Reclining Figure No.1 (1959) by Henry Moore There is also a memorial to commemorate the diamond wedding of Sir William and Lady Keswick and another to Peter Fleming the travel writer and adventurer, friend of the Keswicks, who used to shoot on the estate. (en)
