An eight ton granite sculpture of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. The sculpture is by Edwin Russell and is located in Golden Square. Lewis Carroll was born nearby at Newton-by-Daresbury, Cheshire in 1832. The north-east corner of Cheshire has a history of hat-making, so this is an obvious subject to depict from the works of Carroll. It was unveiled by HRH the Prince and Princess of Wales on May 30th, 1984.
