This life sized bronze statue depicts the astonishment of a 17th century Pilgrim at a boy reading a 1930’s comic, whilst a frisky Staffordshire Bull Terrier clamours for attention. The pilgrim’s pocket contains an A-Z, dated 1620! The statue reflects the area’s past connection to the Pilgrims. Erected by the Mayflower Tenants Association near Cumberland Wharf in 1991.
