Fourth Plinth, continued ....

Passed through Trafalgar Square the other day for the first time since the "One and Other" project on the Fourth Plinth had closed (in mid October). I had heard that a new statue was in place there and I was curious to see it.

A new statue has indeed been placed there - of Sir Keith Park, a World War 2 RAF hero. It's larger than life size, made from fibreglass and should be in place for 6 months (until next April ? It was unveiled early November 2009). It has had some mixed reviews, but then so did the previous project, One and Other, and so will, probably, the next, whatever that will be.

The green coloured One and Other production studio (along with the 2 bright yellow cherry picker type vehicles) have also long since been removed from the Square, giving it back some space.
