The arch on the south-east gateway to St. George’s Park was created in 2008 by Master Blacksmith Bill Cordaroy, from East Ruston. His design of abstracted fishing nets and seaweed reflects styles from the nearby former Art School.
The wooden carved sculpture of St George slaying the dragon seen beyond the gate in this photograph was carved by Mark Goldsworthy from Bungay.
The public art in St. George’s was commissioned as part of the Cleaner, Safer, Greener scheme with funding from the DCLG under the Safer and Stronger Communities funding stream, with supporting funding from Great Yarmouth Borough Council.
