Artwork

  • Ruined Walls (artist: Andrew Burton, reinforced_concrete). The enigmatic stone walls of GRC (glass fibre reinforced cement) provide a counterfoil to the architecture of the Castle and their curved shapes and pale colouring also echo the 1930s work of modernists Tecton at the Zoo. – approx. 50 m.
  • Bronze Crucible (artist: Andrew Burton, bronze) – approx. 100 m.
  • Premier Inn Dudley Town Centre sculpture (metal) – approx. 100 m.
  • Cannon Balls (artist: Andrew Burton, concrete). The mediaeval style bronze Cannon is wittily directed towards the Castle with a stack of 10 cannon balls (one of the cast concrete cannon balls, dubbed "scotch eggs" by one local wit, appears to have been "fired" across the road!). – approx. 100 m.
  • Medieval Plough (artist: Andrew Burton, steel). The Plough, made of Corten steel, refers to mediaeval agriculture and the fact that many of the plots in the nearby town still follow the old strip farming pattern. – approx. 100 m.
  • Heraldic Lion (artist: Andrew Burton, steel) – approx. 100 m.
  • Bronze Cannon (artist: Andrew Burton, brick). The mediaeval style bronze Cannon is wittily directed towards the Castle with a stack of 10 cannon balls (one of the cast concrete cannon balls, dubbed "scotch eggs" by one local wit, appears to have been "fired" across the road!). – approx. 100 m.
