A location-specific installation sited in two vacant shop units at the Duke Street entrance to the Mall in Barrow-in-Furness.
The form of the work is derived from the shape and scale of the curved bow of the Vigilant, a Vanguard class nuclear submarine built in Barrow.The intention of the work was to make it appear that the submarine had dropped onto the building. However, instead of demolishing it, the building had adjusted itself to accommodate the shape of the hull.
