An Ayrshire sculptor’s life works have come full circle - and have once again received a Royal seal of approval.
John McKenna, from Turnberry, shook hands with HRH The Princess Royal last week in Norton, Worcester, after being tasked with creating a life-size bronze version of a soldier to honour the men who served in the Worcestershire Regiment and the contributions they made in the two world wars.
Princess Anne, Patron of the Worcestershire and Sherwood Foresters Regimental Association, unveiled a memorial plaque next to the statue on April 4, after her visit was rescheduled from last year following the death of her mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
