Wirral Council has been called disgraceful over its treatment of "a wonderful piece of art” left lying among bins for nearly eight years.
The sculpture, known as “The Diving Man”, is a six metre high piece that was installed outside Europa Pools Leisure Centre in Birkenhead in the early 2000s.
A planning application in 2001 described it as “stainless steel and shiny with some coloured, enamelled metal forming the diver’s swimming trunks."
