Verity The Statue arrives

Submitted by hovis55 on Tue, 09/10/2012 - 14:57.

Damien Hirsts statue 'Verity' has arrived and will make a spectacular new addition to the harbour. It is scheduled to be unveiled next Tuesday (16th October) and has already been causing a stir.
For the record we think its a fantastic gift from one of our foremost favourite artists and will really be worth a look when it is in pride of place looking out to sea.
