Nose Job

Behind these boards at Brixham Harbour is a statue of William of Orange, commemorating his landing here on 5 November 1688. The council are carrying out a gentle cleaning, repointing the joints on the plinth, and repairing William’s nose, damaged by vandalism in the distant past. This is also one of the few times there hasn’t been a seagull on his head. Lovely day for a walk there.
