Sculpture in St. George's Park
This beautiful photograph of the sculpture at the southwest entrance to St. George’s Park was taken by Derek Jackson. The sculpture was installed in 2008 when improvements to the park were undertaken. Funded by GYBC and NCC, the original design by Darren Barker was made by the artist blacksmith, Nigel Barnett from Fransham Forge, Norfolk, incorporating the birds created by Ros Newman from Norwich.
This the first of what hopefully will become a full record of all the public art, past and present, in the Borough.
