The view east with Staple Hill Tunnel behind. The seating is by sculptor Steve Joyce. Part of the inspiration for the design came from work with Year 5 pupils at Staple Hill Primary School in 2004. The pupils visited the station area and then went on to explore the idea of 'tracks' and other related themes in a set of arts workshops. 10.12.07 |
