A much-missed sheep sculpture that was hit by a car has finally been knocked back into shape and returned to its roundabout home.
The sheep has been restored and returned to its home on a roundabout in Newport
The sculpture, the work of Ludlow based artist Tim Roper, was damaged in a crash in November last year. The sculptures are so well-known in Newport the roundabout, which connects the A518 with Station Road on the southeast edge of the town, is known to locals as the 'Sheep Island'.Newport councillor Tim Nelson banded together with volunteer group Newport in Bloom and Telford & Wrekin Council to restore the ram to the roundabout.
The return of the ram was celebrated by Newport residents, who had become accustomed to the welcoming sight of the three steel sheep.
