Commissioned by Doncaster City Council

Commissioned by Doncaster Council following an international competition, this sculpture was seen as an integral part of the redevelopment of the towns High Street and a large public art programme funded by an EU grant. The Commission brief was for a sculpture to act as a formal gateway entrance into the city.

The title Gillits Bar was taken from the name of the original medieval gateway that once stood on this site.
