The heron is a woven willow sculpture located on the bank overlooking a small pool in the grounds of Rode Hall. It can be seen when following the Snowdrop Walk from Rode Lake towards the wooded area. It is one of a number of willow sculptures created by Redstone Willow in Alsager.

"Redstone Willows is a family business that has been operating since 2002. We have run courses and undertaken a wide variety of exciting projects since then. We have worked extensively with Commercial Organisations, Schools, Charities & Community Groups and Individuals to provide them with interesting and beautiful bespoke willow sculptures, structures and baskets."
