Luton Henge is a new permanent artwork by award-winning artist Matthew Rosier, created for the Chilterns National Landscape to celebrate local heritage and bring communities together.
Inspired by the ancient earthwork Waulud’s Bank, the sculpture was designed in collaboration with Luton residents using local natural materials. The artwork will feature eight standing stones made from Totternhoe chalk, oriented toward key seasonal, local and global landmarks. At its centre is a five-metre chalk circle offering a welcoming setting for community events, informal gatherings and moments of reflection.
The Henge – standing at the site of a former BMX track – will be transformed into a vibrant chalk grassland meadow, planted with native wildflowers, grasses and shrubs in partnership with a range of local groups and volunteers. A new accessible chalk path will lead from the nearby Marsh House community centre to the site, while ten wooden benches – crafted from local timber – will be placed along the perimeter, offering places to rest and take in the surroundings.
Revoluton Arts is the Producing Partner for the Chilterns National Landscape, responsible for project managing the engagement activities and facilitating audience interaction with the site. Through walks, workshops and consultations, the project has grown with the support of the Luton Henge Collective – a local group who will help care for the site, keeping it active and inclusive for years to come.
