Harbour Mouth Molars compromises of six large wisdom teeth, each weighing 6.5 tonnes.
The rope near the bottom of each "tooth" was added later on, which, when wet, would discolour the area below. The idea is based on its susceptibility to decay and damage.
There is a rock bed and planting around the teeth. Under ground lights shine at night onto the teeth.
Please take a photo (with you in it) next to any one of the teeth. If you are by yourself please give a short description of your thoughts about these teeth.....
