Climate change artwork looks like fly-tipping at historic cathedral, residents say

An art installation at a historic cathedral which is designed to highlight the impact of climate change looks like “fly-tipping”, residents have claimed.

The wooden sculpture depicts a house perched on top of a cliff edge and is supposed to remind passers-by of how homes can be affected by coastal erosion and harsh weather.

But the “timber pile” in front of 900-year-old Salisbury Cathedral and near the city’s historic Cathedral Close has angered locals, who have asked for what one called a “monstrous debacle” to be removed.
