THE Ribble Valley Sculpture Trail, has been relaunched after expansion and upgrading..
Situated on 1.5 miles of woodland and flower-rich grassland between Brungerley Park and Cross Hill Quarry in Clitheroe, it was started in 1993, with the wood carving, Two Heads in a 'Tree' by Thompson Dagnall.
It now features 22 unique artworks responding to the local environment and its rich heritage from some of the best artists in the UK, including the famous Sika Deer crafted in stainless steel by Clitheroe sculptor Clare Bigger and six ceramic pieces by Halima Cassell.
The trail was the first sculpture trail in Lancashire and is now one of Ribble Valley’s most popular visitor attractions.
Ribble Valley Borough Council’s arts development officer, Katherine Rodgers, said: “The aim of the trail is to make art accessible."
