Bronze tattoos have transformed Penarth's smallest park, Arcot Triangle into a work of art.

The artworks were specially commissioned from artist David Mackie and are a new talking point for people enjoying the Triangle, thanks to public art investment by the Vale of Glamorgan Council.

Penarth Gardening Club has worked to transform the area in recent years, working with Penarth Town Council, Vale of Glamorgan Council and local residents.

Now local people are planning a community get-together to celebrate the beautiful new bronzes and encourage others to enjoy the spruced up outdoor space.
