For benefit of Shipley and Saltaire residents and visitors.15 sculptures spread out along the path of the River Aire. Sculptor Mick Kirkby-Geddes led workshops with the children of Wycliffe Primary.Children encouraged to use their ideas and feelings about the area to produce drawings and sculptures of their own. These then inspired Mick's own work in preparing the finished metal sculptures for the trail.The Trail was opened on May 25th 2013.
