Sculpture of campaigner to be unveiled next year as one of five in Monumental Welsh Women project
A statue of a Welsh suffragette who was jailed for setting fire to a postbox, survived a shipwreck, and played a key role in the fight to allow women into the House of Lords is to be erected in Newport.
The statue of Margaret Haig Thomas, Lady Rhondda, is being created by the figurative sculptor Jane Robbins and will be unveiled in the city where she worked and campaigned a century ago.
