It’s the knotted gun in New York created as a memorial to John Lennon.

Ian will understand when I say 'Big Iron' in meltdown.

I never realized until I looked it up that there are 31 copies of this sculpture. Knotted Gun.

I didn't know that it was dedicated to John Lennon. I just knew it was outside the UN building in NY, a very topical place at the moment.

Concrete building in Flanders, New York, made in the 1930's by a duck farmer would be my guess.

Definitely my wedding Ian, there is something on the building behind me that could identify where.

You're in the right county, there's something on the building that will identify it exactly.
Here's a clue, Alan Boyson.
