This piece of environmental 'art' is either a talking point or a hideous monstrosity, depending on your point of view, or, from that of the younger members of the community, a fine thing to climb on, much to the discomfiture of the Council who put it there, as it is made of fibreglass and relatively easily damaged. I have yet to hear anyone say that they think it is a thing of beauty. See Image] for an explanation of it. The seagull is not part of the original concept.
