Ashwood Business Park: Far and Beyond

Ashwood Business Park: Far and Beyond

Inspire, the South East Northumberland Public Art Initiative, aims to improve the quality of the built environment across South East Northumberland through the involvement of artists and good design. The project is a partnership of South East Northumberland Regeneration Initiative, Wansbeck District Council, Blyth Valley Borough Council, Northumberland County Council and Groundwork Northumberland. Launched in 2003 Inspire is making a significant contribution to the rebirth of the area.

‘Far and Beyond’ is a twin form sculpture, constructed out of corten steel, that is inspired by boat shapes and the movement of the sea. It provides an impressive centrepiece for the future development of the new Ashwood Business Park. It was commissioned by One NorthEast, the regional development agency.
