Sculptures 'saved' by campaign
Worthing's Desert Quartet, at the side of the Montague Centre in Liverpool Gardens, were given grade II* listed status by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport in May last year.
In June last year the Avon Group, the developers of the Montague Centre, asked for a review of this decision but the Government has now ruled the listed status will remain.

The listing allows them to remain at the site, for which they were originally commissioned.
