Statue of Air Chief Marshal Sir Keith Park GCB KBE MC* DFC DCL MA RAF

What to expect

A large-scale bronze sculpture on a Portland stone plinth. Larger than life-size figure wearing elements of flying clothing typical for the man, who stands in a characteristic pose. His statue is one of many in the immediate area, so for reference, he is nearer to the Duke of York’s column. Unveiled on the 70th anniversary of the Battle in 2010 in the presence of Battle of Britain veterans.
