Park Hill Plinth

Five concrete plinth discs are positioned across the gardens. Installed in 2015, these are the work of artist Keith Wilson, and form the initial and only permanent features of Sculpture Park Hill, which was launched in 2017.[1]

The diameter of the plinths are 3.18 metres which is equal to the size of the grids which form the main building.[2]
