The sculpture is one of five pieces of art to be installed around the UK to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Landmark Trust, which is an organisation that rescues and restores extraordinary buildings.

The trust is keen to find out what people think of the sculpture and aims to publish the comments.

The sculpture will stay at Aldeburgh for 12 months.
