It’s an Antony Gormley work. I like his smaller men sculptures too.

Thanks Margaret.
It’s one of those structures I’d like to visit many times and take photos in different weathers / times of day

I hadn’t heard about that but have just been reading about it. Would be a shame to lose the views but I can’t see him winning his case.
