Public Art

 

 

Public art has been an integral part of the regeneration of Clay Cross. Pieces of art have the ability to inspire people and to add value to a town, and to this end the Council have been keen to ensure that public art is part of all developments within the town, including the New Bridge Street scheme, which recently saw the unveiling of a piece of art by artist Peter Maris which is a memorial to the mining disaster in 1861.

 

This will continue with the New Bridge Street Phase 2 development with pieces of art to be made a part of the new medical centre and also the Ventilation shaft.
