Statue of Queen Victoria


The bronze memorial statue of Queen Victoria on Front Street in Tynemouth was by Alfred Turner and built in 1902. It was paid for by public subscription, despite financial hardship in the country because of the ongoing Boer War.[1] The statue is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.
