Four Corners, Irwell Sculpture Trail
Four Corners, a sculpture by Noah Rose, was commissioned for the site of the old Salford Docks as part of the Salford Quays development as a reminder of the previous use of the site and the people who worked there. The title relates to the fact that for more than 80 years following the opening of the docks in 1894, cargo from the “four corners” of the world sailed into Salford, forty miles from the sea, via the Manchester Ship Canal.
The images etched onto the 24 stainless steel panels depict some of the stories, scenes and characters from the life of the docks as related to the artist by former dockworkers. The sculpture, part of the Irwell Sculpture Trail, was unveiled on 14th March 1997.
