Detail of The Knife Angel at Rochester

The Knife Angel, also known as the National Monument Against Violence & Aggression, was intended to educate children, young people and adults about knife crime. It's a towering, poignant tribute to the lives lost to knife violence, standing 27 feet tall and made of over 100,000 knives. The sculpture was created by artist Alfie Bradley, and was commissioned by the British Ironwork Centre in Oswestry in Shropshire.
