No need for sorry, Veg Grower. Thanks for contributing your thoughts.

I had a variety of reactions to the full size Verity, but don't find the smaller scale sculpture quite as challenging.

Illfracombe council must be hoping that thinking big will work for them.

I've seen how public art can transform a place and put it on the map, sometimes. We enjoyed going to see Anthony Gormley's Another Place in the summer - it's a stretch of the coast we'd never have visited, but for the iron men.
