Just sat and watched Antiques Roadshow where an Anthony Gormley maquette for the Angel of the North was valued at a million squid.


Highly likely that the cast for the bronze maquette would have been made in what used to be his studio on Bellenden Road.


What price now the Gormley bollards along Bellenden Road. A sound investment by the Council. Probably worth slurping some additional concrete around the bases though, before the whole lot disappear.

PS Anyone interested in a workbook of design sketches from a world famous sculptor & artist ?



I will regret this comement later, when I find that the once rich pickings have been rifled by the arriviste ED media glitterati

      Thanks for flagging, I will write to Ellie Reeves and James McAsh - as you say local councillors often slower to respond than MPs but I think they sometimes have 2 jobs?

      It’s still “under essential repair”, if that translates to “no action whatsoever being taken and no update at all being given”.  I wrote to Helen Hayes and CCd one of my councillors (the one who actually ever replies).  Please do the same if you’re cheesed off at this lack of action. You can find your representatives via WriteToThem.  Also try [email protected]

      We've  had another delivery since the change of management, and again it was delicious. Hooray!  The fish dish is really outstanding. They do need to get their (new?) website sorted, as only one of the "menu" links seems to work (the mauve cloud one does bring up the menu - don't click on the one in the inserted pic though, as it's a screenshot!)

Hopefully admin can sort. Apologies for any confusion.
