William Pym's 'Lightbulb', Lemington Centre
The 3m tall light bulb by William Pym (2004-5) is illuminated at night by fibre optics.
The same artist was commissioned for other nearby art works Image
As well as the 'thinking' connotation of the light bulb, there is also a connection with past local industry. Although originally designed for the manufacture of flat glass, in 1906, ownership of the nearby Lemington Glassworks Image passed to the General Electric Company, who used the plant to produce light bulbs and tubes http://sine.ncl.ac.uk/view_structure_information.asp?struct_id=485

William Pym's Roman Fence, Lemington
The 65-metre long fence with gold painted silhouettes of Roman soldiers cost £29,000 and took several years before it was completed in 2007. Although close to the Hadrian’s Trail footpath and cycle route it is about a mile from the stretch of Hadrian's Wall that passes through Lemington to the north http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/6336887.stm
