Another Place To Remain In Place
Anthony Gormley’s splendid piece Another Place is being allowed to stay on Crosby Beach despite nimbyish grumblings from some locals, and more understandable concerns from environmental groups and fishermen.
Here are some photos I took when I went to visit the site last November. At the time it looked like Gormley’s one hundred iron men were about to be moved on, which seemed a shame. They really suit their current situation, staring out past the huge dock cranes and wind turbines towards Wales and the Wirral, so it’s pleasing to know that they will be allowed to remain there for the forseeable.

Hooray! I really must get up to see them sometime soon. The new statues that are going to turn up on the london skyline sound like they’ll be great too!
