Statue will pay tribute to generation who arrived from Caribbean, but its Waterloo location has been criticised
The internationally renowned artist Basil Watson has been chosen to design a permanent national Windrush monument that will be unveiled in Waterloo next year, despite criticism of its location in London.
The statue, which is backed by £1m of government funding, will showcase three figures – a man, woman and child – dressed in their “Sunday best” climbing a mountain of suitcases hand-in-hand.
