'Light Lines' - Somme Commemorative Artwork

The 1st of July 2016 marked the centenary of the first day of the Battle of the Somme. On that day, around 300 Barnsley men lost their lives. To commemorate this anniversary, a new piece public art was commissioned and is on permanent display in Churchfields Peace Gardens.
