My Daily Life in Photo's.

Royal Sussex Memorial

I went to visit my Grandson today & on my way home I saw this & thought is was a great photo to take for my Blip. :)

The statue was unveiled by the Duke of Norfolk, Lord Lieutenant of Sussex & a Major of the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Sussex Battalion, in the presence of a Guard of Honour of the Royal Sussex Regiment. The figure is depicted in the uniform of the Bengal Regiment, one of the old regiments of the East India Company. When the East India Company came to an end the regiment was taken over by the Government & became the 107th regiment which in turn became the 2nd Battalion. The monument is listed Grade II.
