Barbara Hepworth's St Ives workshop gets listed status
A workshop used by Dame Barbara Hepworth has been granted Grade II-listed status, Historic England says.
She used the space, which was opposite her home, to create prototypes of major commissions, often cast in bronze. The artist, who grew up in Wakefield, lived in Trewyn Studios in St Ives from 1949 until her death, caused by a fire, on 20 May 1975. Pieces worked on there included the famous Single Form, which was finished in 1963, which sits outside the United Nations Secretariat Building in New York.
