Sculpture trail and WWII plane crash site

If anyone would like to write about the previous sculpture trail here with images and information as well as it's demise, including the suicide of someone from one of the sculptures, it would be much appreciated. It would also be nice to have some information about the plane wreckage which remains there. --Javindo (talk) 01:27, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

7 1/2 miles

Should the mention of distance (7 1/2 miles) be decimalised? The manual of style (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Numbers) suggests a general preference for decimals over fractions and it looks a bit odd. However it adds a vagueness that suits distances between towns. Pfbray (talk) 19:55, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
