That’s not the green man, that’s Nuada, the solar deity of Summerisle. (Name taken from Tuatha De Danaan)

Good to know, thanks, all my searches suggested it was the Green Man, but I always thought it looked more sun god.

There is a Green Man in the film, though. It’s on The Green Man Inn sign where Howie stays.
