Description:
View of Bear Cave Marker. Location: Royston and Carlton Boundary Walk. Description: Sheet of metal with a bear silhouette at its top and a cave below. Badly marked by graffiti. Commission: "commissioned by someone from Planning Section of Barnsley MBC…. A shortlist of artists was drawn up. The artist was interviewed for this commission…. There was an inaugural walk for the sculptures in general but no formal opening of specific pieces." [1] The boundary walk was officially opened in the summer of 2002. David Mayne made a total of 3 artworks: 'Compass Points' in Royston itself, 'Bear Cave Marker' near the Canal north of Royston, and 'Heron' on the edge of Carlton Marsh Nature Reserve.

Initial funding for the boundary walk included funding for artworks and came from European Community."

References: [1] Interview with the artist on 25/02/2003 [2] Notes from telephone conversation with John Openshaw on 29/9/2003
