Statue and garden, Oxford Street
The statue was erected to mark the Golden Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in 2002. First impression - the face looks like a cross between a lion and a mandrill - was not far off. The work by sculptor Shawn Williamson is called 'Mandilion', and described as a 'lion head imbued with the characteristics of man', carved in medieval style (information from http://www.artworkersguild.org/members/shawn_williamson/ ).
Signs at the back of the garden record a number of wins in the Cumbria in Bloom competition, and that Workington is twinned with Selm (Germany) and Val de Reuil (France).
