 FOR SALE : VICTORIAN STATUE OF YOUNG MAIDEN HOLDING DOVES
This Victorian lead statue of a young maiden holding 2 doves was until 1989 gracing the terrace of The Royal Castle Hotel, in Lynton, Devon.
The Royal Castle Hotel was a regular haunt of the Princes of Wales, who later became Kings Edward VII & George V. Originally known as The Castle Hotel in the early 1800s, it is presumed it added the 'Royal' because of its patronage by the Royal family.
The property has now been redeveloped in to luxury apartments and is now known as Castle Heights and can easily be found by Googling Castle Heights/Royal Castle Hotel Lynton.
The vendor owned the hotel in the 1980s and since its sale this statue has been in the vendor's garden. It is only now offered for sale because of personal relocation overseas.
She stands some 24 inches tall and in 1996 Phillips dated her at circa 1880
