About
Sculptor: Colin Melbourne. Sir Henry Doulton was a pottery manufacturer and one of the key members of the Doulton family who developed the Royal Doulton pottery firm. The statue depicts Sir Henry Doulton wearing formal Victorian dress; his left hand holds his top hat, his right hand his umbrella, and he wears a flower in his button hole. The pedestal with its chamfered stones is quite unusual.
Have your say on public art in the city...
Stoke-on-Trent City Council is creating a register of public art to help inform planning decisions, related to any future regeneration schemes – as well as seeking to understand how people currently engage with public art in Stoke-on-Trent.
The authority already has a 72-strong inventory of public art installations across the city – some of which you can view here on the Visit Stoke website – and it is looking to develop the list even further – with the help of the city’s residents/visitors.
If you are interested in taking part – please click on the following link to complete the survey:

The engagement exercise will run until Wednesday 31 January 2024.
