The centrepiece is a 1980 sculpture by British artist David Wynne, entitled 'Fountain of the Five Swimmers'. It depicts five female and male figures floating gracefully around each other and surrounded by dancing fountains.
Staines-upon-Thames, commonly known simply as Staines, is a town on the River Thames in the Borough of Spelthorne in Surrey, England. It is located approximately 3 miles (5 km) from London Heathrow Airport.
I visited Staines while on a stopover at Heathrow between Johannesburg and Montréal.
