Victoria Cross holders Monument Installed in Nottingham Castle Grounds

Lidsters of Worksop “The Monumental Masons” supply a 4 tonne monument to all of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire’s Victoria Cross Holders. Made from Carnation Pink Granite, the monument is now a permanent feature in the grounds of Nottingham castle. The monument was produced in China, and lettered in Worksop.

The lettering was quite a challenge, a font was modified to create an appropriate style, and all of the sandblasting equipment was dismantled and set up in a tent because the monument was too large to manoeuvre inside the workshops.
