I live in Darlington. That thing is widely considered to be an abomination. It's not actually in Darlington but between a supermarket car park and a dual carriageway virtually in the countryide. I'm fairly ambivalent towards it to be honest. I can appreciate it as a work of art but I think there could have been something a bit better to commemorate the only reason anyone knows the town exists...
