‘Seat in the naval town of Gosport as part of the improvement to the George & Dragon Square’

Richard Bent, artist blacksmith, designed and made this seat in the naval town of Gosport as part of the improvement to the George & Dragon Square. The hulls and sails form a crown around the top of the capstan, this format having been taken from the Royal Navy Ships’ crests; the 8 ceramic feature panels above the seating, were designed and glazed by Jan, to describe the variety of shops in the small lanes and streets of the immediate area.
