Meadowhall is pretty much an aweful eyesore and I think the new Mosque just off Chesterfield Road is quite stunning, especially looking down at the city on a clear day.

The statue is wonderful (maybe the Entwives settled in Dudley), I only wish we could have something like that here in my city- perhaps a bronze Sean Bean as Boromir with his hand held aloft holding his sword as you approach Bramall Lane
