New Gravel Pit Chapel - sculpture

Erection date: 1999

Site: New Gravel Pit Chapel (3 memorials)

E9, Mead Place

In our photo the plaque is lost behind the bramble branches to the right of the right-most panel. We have captured 2 of the c.5 sculpted panels. The others are either impossible to see through the (quite spiky) foliage, or represent purely decorative elements, such as plants, and contain no historic or commemorative items, as far as we could see.
