We are searching out the sculptures that are in walking distance from Brentford Dock.
We feel that Brentford could do with some more public sculptures of the best quality and maybe the many local developers could be encouraged to acquire and include some, as part of the redevelopment of Brentford. The prestigious companies we have in Brentford could also contribute, like Glaxo who have a superb modern sculpture outside their office on the Great West Road.
