Unique gateway size and scale revealed


Artist Walter Jack is working on a unique gateway in the form of a crushed wall, that will take visitors from Pool Village to the Heartlands site.

The crushed wall is inspired by Cornish geology and is a representation of crushed rock in liquid form.

The 24 metre long wall will be cast in concrete using the mould pictured in the above photo, this shows the exact scale and size of the wall.

Walter Jack worked with local concrete suppliers Ladds to develop innovative casting techniques that will create the waves in the concrete.
