Art sculpture delighting visitors to Hauxley nature reserve

A new sculpture trail in Amble that takes in Northumberland Wildlife Trust’s Hauxley reserve has had the royal seal of approval from the Duke of Gloucester.

Developed by Amble Development Trust, and on course to become a major cultural asset and visitor attraction for the town, the Bord Waalk, takes local birdlife as its theme and comprises sculptures dotted along the coast between Hauxley and the Braid at Amble.

In addition to static sculpture, the trail has virtual reality, sound and poetry sculptures and encompasses a varied range of landscapes, environments, backdrops and habitats that visitors can reflect upon whilst walking along the trail.
