FEATHERS FLY AS SWANS 'WALK' TO STOP WATER WASTAGE
Following an environmental and safety review, the iconic sculpture by Lorne McKean was removed on Sunday evening following instructions by owners of Swan Walk. Representatives of asset managers Morley said the move would make the shopping centre more environmentally friendly and cut down water wastage.
But a campaign has been launched to reinstate the swans, which were a much-loved feature of the shopping centre. A Horsham District Council spokesperson said: "We are having urgent discussions with the owners of the centre to see if the swan sculpture can be reinstated."
