Michael Ayrton the sculptor, broadcaster and writer, whose work can be seen at The Fry Art Gallery, lived near Saffron Walden and is buried at Hadstock. He visited Greece in 1958 and became pre-occupied with the legends of Daedalus and Icarus and the imagery based around the Minotaur and the maze. ‘Such a total maze each man makes round himself and each is different from any other,’ Michael Ayrton, 1967.
