Southend MP statue unveiled

Available for over a year

A statue in memory of the late Southend MP Sir David Amess has been unveiled on Chalkwell seafront. Sir David served as a Southend West MP when he was fatally stabbed in Leigh-on-Sea in October 2021. The statue was designed by sculptor Andrew Lilley, who explained why he decided to take on the project before any funds had been raised. Picture credit: Louise Graham.
