Great North Forest: Stile

Great North Forest: Stile

Launched in 1990 Great North Forest aimed to plant a community forest across Tyne and Wear and to encourage people to use and value their local countryside in a new way.

The 'Marking the Ways' initiative brought forward many new commissions for sculptural seating and waymarkers, with artists working with local people, including this stile designed by sculptor Keith Barratt.
