The 26-foot high (8m) sculpture is made out of knives and is intended as a tribute to victims of knife crime.

The 100,000 weapons forming the Knife Angel have either been confiscated or surrendered to police.

It was made at the British Ironworks Centre at Oswestry, Shropshire.

Victims' families have had messages engraved on the wings.
