Portrait Bench at the start of the Rodwell Trail
The Portrait Bench at the start of the Rodwell Trail, Abbotsbury Road, features three figures in steel who immortalise the town’s heroes as voted for by the public – the coastguards, lifeboat crews and fishermen.
The Coastguard on the left is based on Robert Treadwell who died on October 13, 1944, one of two coastguards and nine Royal Navy officers to lose their lives when the LCT(A) 2454 landing craft ran aground on Chesil Beach. Mr Treadwell, who was on shore helping with the rescue effort, was washed into the sea and drowned. He was posthumously decorated with the Sea Gallantry Medal and is buried at the Verne Naval Cemetery on Portland.
