More Public Sculpture


Also in Ardee on the other side of town stands this helmet sculpture no doubt another reference to the fight at the ford. It's an impressive sight near a busy roundabout. As far as I could see there is no plaque or information on the sculpture's title or maker on or near it. This is not uncommon a bit annoying.

The positioning of the Yield sign is unfortunate unless you consider it an integral part of the installation in which case you wonder are we the public saying "Yield" to the people of violence or are they saying it to us. Now if it was a Stop sign there . . .
