Green route sculptures in Hedge End
Sculptures have been installed along the Hedge End green routes after the scheme was delayed by the Covid pandemic.
The wayfinder sculptures were designed and handcrafted by a talented artistblacksmith, Bex Simon, working with local people. They have been installed in three locations in the Grange Park/Dowd’s Farm area.

The sculptures, funded through public art contributions from local development, will help walkers navigate through the local path network and encourage people to take green routes rather than more urban routes, supporting their health and wellbeing, and enhancing their enjoyment of the local environment. Discussions are now taking place with local walking clubs to develop a circular route that follows the path of the sculptures.
