Shire Hall is the headquarters of Warwickshire County Council. A large extension was built in the 1950s and 60s facing onto the Market Place, with a fountain and pool outside. The heron sculptures are a much more recent addition, the work of Rachel Higgins, a local artist. https://www.stratford-herald.com/whats-on/escape-arts-reveal-new-sculpture-9139783/ The dismantling of the Saturday market in the square can be seen taking place in the background.
