Paterchurch Point - Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire, Wales. - Relief Art Sculptures on Waymarking.com

A series of six bronze relief panels depicting events & scenes in the History of the Royal Dockyard. The panels forms part of the Town Trail project, sponsored by the Pembroke Dock Townscape Heritage Initiative.

The panels were carved in Bath Stone by a local Sculptor Perry Butler, & then cast in bronze. The panels looked like tinted stone, I had to step up to them & touch to confirm they were in fact bronze.

On a descriptive bi-lingual plaque below the Bronze panel, the Era is described as Edwardian, & gives the panel title as: 'Paterchurch point.

At its peak the Dockyard employed over 5,000 workers. The Dockyard closed in 1926.

The Bronze relief panel is displayed on the former Dockyard wall,
along Front Street, with the Martello Gun Tower in the background.
