Shirley Field of Poppies

A Planning Application has been lodged for a Proposed 'Shirley Field Of Poppies' Public Art installation located on Stratford Road, Shirley.

The proposed location for the new public art installation is the middle of the recently constructed roundabout, at the junction of Stratford Road (A34), Haslucks Green Road, and Olton Road.

The poppy emblem is felt appropriate as it is already utilised as an emblem for Shirley Town Centre and 2018 will be 100th Anniversary Armistice of WW1. As such it is proposed there will be 18 Poppies installed.
