I’m worried it might be used for something else which isn’t good and nobody wants to see

Well, the BBC has announced it, so it must be true.

On the subject of Rotherham Public Art, whatever happened to the metal 'spidery' looking thing that used to be in the middle of the roundabout (bottom of St. Anne's Road?). Is it still there?

I first thought I saw it was the new park bit on high street whenever that’ll be finished, think I’m seeing things

Surely much too large to be placed in the pocket park? All Saints Square or Minster Gardens seem to be the only viable options. Incidentally, if it takes as long to start as the man of steel/steel man sculpture....

Also what happened to the man of steel that was supposed to be overlooking the M1 did it just get binned?
