Erection date: 1966

Inscription

{On the front of the rough stone plinth:}
Churchill
{Inscribed on the back of the neck, to the north:}
Nineteenfortyone, The giant of England
{and to the south:}
Froni

We think the thickness of the neck has been overdone, even for Churchill. have some very dull footage from 1966 of this bust sitting on a desk for about 5 minutes.

2019: informs that the plinth is a stone from the old Rennie Waterloo Bridge.
