This statue is a tribute to Marshall of the Royal Air Force Charles Portal, who commanded the bomber off the RAF during the Second World War. He, along with Bomber Harris believed and advocated the use of strategic bombing to bring an end to the war. A strategy that contributed to the end of the war at great human cost. Times have changed as have ideas about aerial warfare doctrine, so I leave it up to the reader to decide strategy from the comfort of their armchairs.  This statue shows Lord Portal, right foot forward, looking up at the sky or perhaps at the RAF monument opposite his statue. A fine tribute to a hero.

This is a new design for me I have never seen one that has such a rough looking finish on it and love how it matches the roughness of the stone.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
