Going with the Flo

Going with the Flo - Andy Capp Statue. The Headland, Hartlepool
Jean Smythe, wife of Hartlepool artist Reg Smythe, unmasked the 5ft high bronze sculpture in the town’s Headland area in June 2007. The statue, by Shropshire artist Jane Robbins, captures the working class hero in a typically relaxed pose, but sadly (a sign of the times) minus his trademark cigarette. The monument now has pride of place outside the Harbour of Refuge pub, in Croft Terrace.
