I would be quite interested in seeing what the roundaboout looks like. If you have a link to a picture of it, it would be much appreciated…

oops. Silly me! I meant to say that there is a copy of the PICCADILLY CIRCUS Eros statue on the roundabout sited at the entrance to Fleetwood Lancs.

If you are not aware of it, you really should check out the roundabout at the entrance to Fleetwood, Lancashire. Gifted to the town by Doreen Lofthouse owner of Fisherman’s Friend cough lozenges, is a bronze replica of Eros, the Trafalgar Square statue. This has been mounted on an impressive plinth in the centre of the roundabout on Amounderness Way. It is quite a sight.
I am happy to forward pics if you are interested.
In my years of travel throughout the British Isles, this is certainly the most individual roundabout I have seen
