This dramatic sculpture with soaring pinnacles of steel supporting hand worked flying tail forms is viewed against a backdrop of sky, sea and mountains. The form was inspired by the pioneering flight in Northern Ireland by Harry Ferguson along Newcastle coastline and the seaside heritage of the town. Artist: Charles Normandale

For that more informal style of meal or drink why not visit The Percy French restaurant resting at the foot of the Mourne Mountains, in the grounds of the Slieve Donard hotel. At The Percy French you are greeted with a smile and the log burning fires ensure a relaxing atmosphere

  This piece celebrates the life of the multi-talented entertainer, Percy French, who composed the song “The Mountains of Mourne”. To represent this wistful letter home, the stainless steel is held on the edge and engraved with handwritten lyrics to resemble a page. An iconic image of Percy is subtracted from the sheet, allowing a view of the Mournes and linking the man, the scenery and the song. Created by Kevin Killen & Conor McKeanna
