| Power Rhythm by Robert Erskine |
Erskine was successful in winning a national competition to create a landmark sculpture for the City of Peterborough. The resulting sculpture, Power Rhythm, was created in 2000 to celebrate the new millennium, the opening of the Sustrans cycle network, and the contribution made by Perkins Caterpillar engines to the local community. Perkins Engines have been an important manufacturer and employer in the city since 1932. The heritage of engineering in the City linked with Robert Erskine’s background in and passion for design, engineering, industry and nature, inspired this monumental sculpture.

Located as part of the Green Wheel cycle route (Nr Eye Roundabout, Parnwell Way, Peterborough) I was able to visit this a couple of times now through cycling as part of the Eye Green route we took from our home. Sadly, it has seen better days and appears to be not well maintained with graffiti and trash found when I took these photos.
