This statue to Charles Stuart Rolls stands in Agincourt Square in Monmouth, Wales. He was born in London in 1877 but his family seat was in the town and he is buried nearby. He met a sad end in 1910 when he became the first Briton to be killed in an aircraft accident.
The town of Monmouth is a pleasantly situated place although infested with clone shops. This is balanced by the presence of both a Waitrose and a Marks & Spencer Simply Food (see, I get my priorities right).
