There are five stones, ranging between 2-7 feet in height and they are made of sandstone. This modern-day circle stands in a quiet little garden - a haven of peace from the hurly-burly of the city centre and somewhere to sit and meditate on the cares of the world, or rest your shopping on the way home!
These five stone monoliths look quite good at any angle. An excellent idea by the City Council - perhaps one of their better modern-art ideas to enhance the city of Stoke On Trent.
