After learning that country-pop sensation Taylor Swift had purchased a home in Rhode Island, a local decided to extend a warm welcome to her by creating a corn maze in her honour.

ABC6 reports that the man, named Richard Manfredi, took his mower out at Manfredi Farms in Westerly, RI and created a maze in the shape of 'Welcome Taylor' and even added a guitar to the end of the design. 

It took him and another three friends to create the corn pathways (pictured below) and speaking to news reporters about the gesture, he explained that it took a lot of work but he just wanted to be a "good neighbour".

Earlier this summer, it was revealed that shortly after purchasing the $17m home, Swift erected a sign on the property to stop people from trespassing and it references one of her hit singles: 'I knew you were trouble when you walked in. No trespassing.'
