New Statue in Trafalgar Square


The empty fourth plinth is now being used for the statue of a war hero, just like two of the other three. It's only temporary though. The statue is of Sir Keith Park who commanded RAF 11 group fighter command, defending London and south east England during the Battle of Britain. He was a New Zealander. The statue was designed by an Australian and manufactured in Wellington, New Zealand. This is a fibre glass version. A permanent bronze statue will be erected in Waterloo Place.
