It might interest some of you to know that the chap who designed the lumps is called Peter Beard and he is an architect who teaches, part-time, in London and has a vague interest in post industrial landscapes and designing .....wait for it....
Business Parks.

Not an internationally aclaimed sculptor or artist. Not that we could expect someone of the stature of say Henry Moore or Anthony Gormley, though it would have been nice. No, we have to put up with some southern chancer who couldn't give a tinker's cuss about Hyndburn, it's history or it's people.

I doubt that he has even been anywhere near the coppice. If he had he would know that his lumps would be obscured from view by the trees growing on the side, thus rendering the whole aim of the project pointless.
