Plaque

Lord Ennals

Erection date: 1997

Inscription

'The Passenger' in the cloister by Paula Haughney. In fond memory of Lord Ennals, 1922 - 95, Patron of the Bromley by Bow Centre.

The plaque is in exactly the same style as the two above so rather than show that we have chosen to show the sculpture. However it was only once we got home and on our computer that could we identify which of the many sculptures is 'The Passenger' so we are using the picture from PMSA.

Site: Bromley by Bow Centre (3 memorials)
