The Armillary, Stratford on Avon

Image: © David Howard Taken: 3 Jun 2018

A controversial 25 foot high, corten steel art work on the roundabout at the junction of Banbury Road and Trinity Way. The work was designed by public artists Renn and Thacker, who were commissioned by the Stratford Renaissance Group - Stratford's Market Town Initiative group, part of World Class Stratford. It was funded by the developer of the adjoining Trinity Meads housing project. It was installed in 2007. It has been the subject of petitions to have it removed, but so far to no avail.
