Shepshed Gateway Feature - Kirkhill
This sculpture formed part of Leicestershires Market Town Programme which amongst other aims to make the smaller centre more welcoming and these improvements include streetscape improvements such as improved signage, new footways etc together with newsletters for businesses and a shopping guide.
The artwork cost £20,000 and was funded largely by the LSEP (LeicesterShire Economic partnership)with some Leicestershire County Council support.
The artwork was commissioned following workshops which were held during Summer 2005 with local school children in Shepshed. The children's perception of Shepshed was built into the design, together with the local heritage of sheep and woodlands. The artist was Anu Patel.

Substations
Substations are secure and protected structures where high voltage electricity is distributed from the National Grid, or local supply networks, and transformed down into more manageable voltage levels for homes and businesses. The equipment contained inside the substation is regularly inspected and maintained. They can be found in both local and rural areas displaying yellow warning signs, and are locked and protected for everyone's safety. Only authorised employees and supervised emergency workers are allowed to enter substations. Please stay out of these substations.
Substations are 'Danger Zones' and every year, despite warnings, people are still killed, or seriously injured, after illegally accessing them.
