A series of artwork along the 'Dudley Southern By-pass', forms
one of the most spectacular sculpture trails in the country.
The
trail symbolises a passage through time. Starting off with the
echoes of 'Ancient and Geological History' on the grass verge
at Wolverton Road, moving through 'Mediaeval History' on the huge
Castle Gate Island. Continuing with 'Civic History' at the small
town centre roundabout, 'Industrial History' at the Cinder Bank
Island, with 'the Future' at Scotts Green Island.
Artists
were shortlisted from all over the country. Steve Field, resident
artist and public art adviser to Dudley Council, co-ordinated
the trail. Successful candidates included local artists and others
whom have Black Country connections.
Use

artists who created them.
