Three designs have been shortlisted for a reinstated fountain in the West Yorkshire town of llkley.
A water fountain first installed in a West Yorkshire town in 1886 is to be reinstated, with new designs from three local artists on the shortlist.
Improving Ilkley said all the designs were possible to engineer and were "robust enough to survive an Ilkley winter standing in freezing cold water".Sean Dowker's orb design represent the eye of Rombald, a giant in local legend Improving Ilkley trustee Karl Milner said: "We have had 160 responses to the consultation so far, so if anyone else would like to share an opinion that would be welcomed."
"I've done some orb fountains before and I think the sound they make is really beautiful, while they are also very hard-wearing." Juliet Gutch is a sculptor who has specialises in mobile artworks, taking her inspiration from the local landscape.
