Errol Gardens: copper panels of trees and flying swallows, at top (3rd) floor; panels of single fish (pike, stickleback, smelt and grayling), on ground floor railings. Pine Place: one panel of a tree, inserted into the balcony. Cumberland Street: copper panels of trees and flying swallows, at top (3rd) floor. | ||
Part of the Crown Street Regeneration Project. Goss's original intention was to simulate the flight path of a flock of swallows around the inner courtyard; he had to modify his design due to the Project's policy of confining artworks to the public frontages. | ||
