A mysterious new art installation has appeared over the weekend in Princes Park.
The installation includes bricks washed up on Crosby beach from homes damaged and destroyed during the Blitz, according to the group who created it.
The art work, called the Spiral, was created by anonymous group Astronavi Liverpool, and features a series of stones circling a tree in Princes Park with a sign encouraging visitors to "take some time to connect" with the structure.
Accompanying the stones circles is a plaque, which states: "These ‘stones’ began life as clay before they were shaped into bricks and hardened with fire, creating shelter for families, organisations and businesses throughout Liverpool.
"Then, over seven nights in May 1941 during the Blitz, many of these bricks suffered from the citywide onslaught where far too many died and many more made homeless.
"Fragmented once again, these bricks found new life on a mile-long stretch of Mersey coast in Crosby.
"Smoothed by the elements over the best part of 80 years, they have since returned to a more natural form."
The group claim that Friends of Princes Park, who help look after the Toxteth park, have given their approval to the project, after cards were left at the site overnight.
A spokesperson for Astronavi Liverpool said: "We felt that The Spiral would be received best in Princes Park, given it’s already home to a Labyrinth and Wood Henge.
"We placed The Spiral on Saturday and returned on Sunday to find some post cards from Friends of Princes Park, indicating they had embraced our gift."
The spokesperson continued: "We hope people will feel the love that has gone in to this project and respect The Spiral accordingly, hopefully creating a space for meditation and quiet contemplation."
The Spiral was not the only unusual installation to appear in Liverpool Parks this weekend, as signs proclaiming alien abduction sighting also appeared in Sefton Park.
Astronavi Liverpool however state that they are not responsible for the alien abduction signs, with the spokesperson saying this was "pure coincidence."
