Designed to reflect the industrial and agricultural heritage of the landscape, the Canterbury Bull was commissioned by Westgate Parks officer Anna Bell and paid for with Heritage Lottery Funding. It is made from old railway track by Steven Portchmouth. Tannery Field is the green space between Rheims Way and the river, opposite the Old Tannery housing development. Long before Rheims Way was built the area was part of the city’s largest tannery, hence the name.
