This wrought iron and stained glass butterfly sits atop a three headed dandelion

The butterfly portion stands at 3ft. It was purchased by Bussey & Armstrong builders from blacksmith Brian Russell of Teesdale.

It was originally purchased to be a centrepiece of the West Park development which the company was involved in. However for some reason it never ended up there. it now sits proudly in the centre of the compound of the headquarters of the developers.

At one time thieves climbed in and stole the butterfly section. It was also once showcased at the Bowes museum in Barnard Castle.
