In Randolph, on the east side of North Street, is the Central Cemetery, which has a carved wooden structure that has the appearance of a large reindeer.
The cemetery is located about a half mile north of the ice rink on North Street.
The sculpture is located to the south of the the main entrance, near the edge where a house is located, and near the military graves.
The sculpture is tall enough to be an elk, but it likely is for a reindeer, since the nose is a red lightbulb - a likely reference to Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer. The wood is still mostly in the form of logs, with the bark on. The antlers are large branches. A red nose is perched at the end of the face. Other features are burned in.
