Founded in 1990, Castle Fine Arts Foundry is one of the UK’s leading art foundries and has nearly 30 years of experience in the manufacture and installation of public art including some of the country’s most monumental sculptures such as the Armed Forces Memorial unveiled by the Queen in 2007 at the National Arboretum.

The foundry gained the prestigious British Small Businesses Champion 2008 award from the Federation of Small Businesses in recognition of the way the company operates.

The Beatles statue was unveiled at the Pier Head, Liverpool in December 2015, weighs in at 1.2 tonnes, was sculpted by Andrew Edwards and cast at Castle Fine Art Foundry Ltd.

The idea came from foundry managing director Chris Butler, who was inspired when walking through Liverpool ONE and saw the huge image of the band outside HMV.

Today we will find out more about this local business.
