Letter to The Times from Neville Gorton, Bishop of Coventry, Wednesday, 29 December 1943 (pg. 5; Issue 49739; col F)
•
Neville Gorton, then Bishop of Coventry, wrote to the Times on 29 December 1943 to propose that John’s statue be recast as an Air Force Memorial, commenting on the statue that “It is a moving work of faith and tenderness, and of the quality in its faith and its art Eric Gill’s judgement stands”.
•
The statue was subsequently re-cast at the commission of Neville Gorton and stands in the ruins of the old Coventry Cathedral as a memorial to those who lost their lives in the war.
