701 theobaldi cant believe that it is even being considered for removal .........incredible
702 kevin JonesPlease let's keep these statues where they are meant to be, here on Merseyside! This is a wonderful opportunity for Liverpool to place itself even more firmly on the map as a city of culture and excellence. Removing the "iron men" would be a terrible backwards step for us all.

705 Veronica TurnerWhen we visted crosby beach it was rather cold and windy so we couldn't stay as long as we would have liked. We are thrilled to hear they are staying and we will be over the moon if they stay perminantly. We will then have the chance to see them again and perhaps stay longer this time. Yes, we all say keep them here, this is were they belong.
706 Sarah ParryI love them and I haven't yet seen them in flesh yet! We have the Angel here up North and would love to see another fantastic piece of Gormley art stay in the North West and be enjoyed forever like our Angel.

712 AnonymousI brilliant feature. We had a superb afternoon walking around the area watching the statues being slowly revealed by the receding tide. A great addition and one we will visit again to see how it changes over time. It has to stay!

715 Graham NuttallIconic landmark would be a loss to an area which needs to keep visitors coming.

719 clive ramsdaleas a lecturer at the university of northampton I would like my students to see this sculpture for years to come
720 Rebecca SextonPlease keep the Gormley's on Mersyside!
721 Jane WadkinI live in Pembrokeshire, West Wales, and travelled to the site yesterday to see this amazing work by Antony Gormley. Crosby Beach is the perfect setting for them: the constant traffic in and out of the port contrasts beautifully with the stock-still figures gazing impassively out to sea. It can only be a lose/lose situation for Crosby, Sefton, Liverpool and Great Britain if 'Another Place' is relocated to another place.

726 heino hugelDear Sirs, I strongly support this petition. I think the figures fit marvelously onto Crosby Beach and have brought a lot of positive attention to the beach and the area. I hope it is achieved to keep them where they are.

728 Jane Brunning, Save The Ribble CampaignKeep the Gormleys on Crosby beach! They are a fantastic piece of artwork which brings so much to the area, and more widely represents our intimate relationship with our seas and coastlines, and all without causing environmental damage, unlike so much of what is attempted in the name of "tourism" such as barrages and watersports parks...
729 Peter FlynnI have visited the installation several times and whenever we have visitors we take them to see it. They are all enormously impressed and it provides a highlight for any visit to Merseyside. It seems enormously relevant to the area's relationship with the river and the movement of people along it. With the capital of culture year almost upon us it would be tragic to lose such a major and iconic work of art.
730 G. Chippendale,I am looking forward to go and see them with my camera,
731 Andy McTaggartThis stunning , remarkable and brilliantly simplistic Gormely creation , is inspiring , embracing and stimulating. The Iron men of Crosby are the keepers of the beautiful sandy beach who never fail to give any and every visitor a warm and deeply fulfilling welcome. Removing the sculptures would be both a crime and a wonderfully unique opportunity squandered. Andy Mctaggart

737 PhilippeAs a foreigner I look forward to come on Crosby Beach and admire this beautiful and 'human' creation. May others feel encouraged to give our beaches this kind of new dimension.

740 joyce frenchthese sculptures are wonderful and should stay where they are. apart of british culture for others to see in generations to come.
741 AnonymousPlease, please let them remain. They look so right in their place. We love to visit from Wales to see them.
742 Steve SewellI visited Crosby beach last Sunday after seeing the statues on the local news. I cannot believe that somebody wants to move them, they must stay so that more and more people can visit and enjoy the experience

748 AnonymousI am currently doing an A level in photography and this work of art has been fantastic for my Exam piece, as I'm sure, it will have been and will continue to be of great help to other art students.
