This shiny artwork stands by the roundabout on the A4 London Road in Walcot. It is entitled 'Offspring' and was created in polished stainless steel by William Pye in 2008; it was inspired by an image by the photographer Edward Weston of the section through a nautilus shell. The sculpture features a trickle of water to add to the effect. Sadly the tree behind it has not been able to accompany it.
