This archway was designed as a focal point on a newly laid out public park and was erected to celebrate the Millennium. The sides of the tapering slate uprights were carved with aspects of the village (learning, labour, leisure and life) shown in actual locations, while the steel silhouette above refers to the village’s name, showing a pair of ravens building their nest – a hopeful image for the Spring, and for the years to come.
