One of five sculptures created to commemorate the role that the Holyrood Estate area has played in the city’s history. Each standing on tall poles at various locations throughout the estate, the five sculptures depict iconic characters from Southampton’s past. This sculpture references the ancient maritime tradition of placing models of sailing ships inside churches such as in the nearby Holyrood Church.
