    This striking statue was created by artist Ray Lonsdale. Found close to the Seaham war memorial on the seafront, the huge steel soldier depicts a soldier from World War I. The statue was displayed in 2014. Originally, it was temporary, but residents raised £102,000 to make it a permanent fixture on the seafront.

      It was originally created for a private buyer and was located in its current spot until ready to be moved. However, the people of Seaham became so attached the creator offered it to Seaham for a far cheaper price. Seaham folk, myself included raised the required sum and bought it. It is a remarkable statue and so iconic.

        Lovely little place to visit, there is a few coffee shops and chip shops just across the road from the memorial Tommy.
