‘Statue to the Fans’ by Julian Jeffery, Andy Edwards and Carl Payne, Stadium of Light, Sunderland

Bronze figures of an older man in cloth cap and rosette, a younger woman and two children. The main holds a armorial sundial above his head mounted on a two-step concrete circular plinth. There is an adjacent memorial plaque, which mean the statue is also utilised as a war memorial for wreaths.
