The council offices are within the buildings at the left. The dome in the foreground contains a sculpture but I omitted to make a note of the details. Thankfully a fellow contributor has provided the information that 'The Cupid and Psyche statue is the work of Giovanni Maria Benzoni (1809-1873) for Harrogate's Spa Room Gardens. It was removed in 1958, and placed in storage, until rediscovered years later. It is now permanently displayed in a glass pavilion used originally for the display of Harrogate's entry to the 1990 Gateshead Garden Festival.' Image
