Context.
The main building of this place is Hospitalfield House built in 1849. In nowadays it is a residential art centre – place for creating in a medium with 'quiet ambience, tranquil country gardens and particularly generous studio space' (http://www.hospitalfield.org.uk/).
The building is built in the Gothic style from red sandstone which is typical local material of most of Arbroath buildings.
The site is a park bordered by old trees and further by stone wall variables in a height.
There are several art pieces located in the park and out of it. One of them on the way to the park was very impressive to address and inspire me.
