Centurion Way Arch is reinstated after 10 years!

The Arch is now restored near to Bishop Luffa School with an exotic new livery emphasising the sculptures!

The team from Peter Clutterbuck Blacksmiths and Balfour Beatty started at just after 8 o’clock today, March 13th 2025, and erected the refurbished sculpture and structure with minimal disruption. Tomorrow should see the final concrete and soil infilled to complete the process.

Carley Sitwell and Sarah Sharp eagerly watched the installation progress. They both spoke on camera in the following two videos. There was a lot of construction noise in the first location so we made a second recording taken further South on the path. Both videos are included below. They both cover the similar points but with less background noise in the second recording.
