They do seem to be just plonked haphazardly all over the place don't they? I love the idea of flora in the town but these just seem to be big and ugly and there is no relationship between them and their location.

In fact my first thought as I kept seeing them everywhere I turned was that it seemed like a scene from a surreal episode of Dr. Who 'The Invasion of the Black Plastic Planters!'

The three round the cog wheel look particularly incongruous.

The different ones in Church Street remind me of some we had donkeys years ago - they couldn't have dug them out again and painted them black could they?

Just took these quick snaps with a rather manky camera phone.
