BATH, UNITED KINGDOM - APRIL 14: Artist Al Greenall takes delivery of one of the 100 model pigs that are going to be placed on the streets of Bath for six months as part of a public art scheme on April 14 2008 in Bath, England. The lifesize fibreglass pigs, which will be painted by artists including Peter Blake and will be sponsored by local businesses, are part of the King Bladud's Pigs in Bath project to raise money for charity and to commemorate the city's founding father who, according to legend, discovered its healing springs with his herd of pigs around 3,000 years ago. However officers at Bath and North East Somerset Council originally refused the art scheme because it would 'trivialise' Bath's historic locations and harm its status as a World Heritage City. Despite some local objections permission was later granted on the grounds that they were not fixed structures and therefore did not require planning permission.
