| Blood Cascade |

The centre of Darlington used to be linked on a sharp incline between the buildings on the east and the covered market on the west. This made it easy for the stallholders to clean the area after the market. To reflect this history a shallow cascade of water now runs down the steps which seperate High Row and West Row. The colour and grain of the granite suggests the blood which was washed down the road from the meat stalls. The pattern of the cascade is defined by a barcode indicating the location, cost, date of construction and materials of the water feature, bridging the past market activity with present day commerce.
