My Dad sold street furniture (bollards, benches, litter bins, planters, playground equipment, etc..) to councils, local authorities. He travelled a lot and took a lot of photos of the equipment to show how it looked once installed.
I found this pic buried in a dozen envelopes of photos of bins and signs and fencing.

@Floppy I had to look on street view to see what you meant, brilliant!
@zebulonmysterioso and that's without even mentioning the Hawker Hunter on a big stick that you can also see poking its nose out in the background. That bit of Woking town centre is a mad place in the best way.
@Floppy I saw a photo of that too, and I wondered if there was a link between the statues
@zebulonmysterioso nope! The plane was apparently decoration for the venue behind it (there was another inside over the bar) until they abandoned the aerospace theme and the council took it over. Apparently now it's come down and being (been?) restored.
@zebulonmysterioso the Martian in Woking! And, if you look carefully, just hidden behind the foreground bollard is a crashed cylinder embedded in the pavement. Easily the best thing about Woking :)
