*SHERWOOD FOREST* - Robin Hood & Little John

This action statue was at the Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre near Edwinstowe and features Robin Hood and Little John when they first meet and battle with their quarterstaff's on a bridge (the actual title on the plaque below is straight and to the point). It was unveiled in 1988 and the sculptor was Graham Ibbeson.

According to legend Little John won the fight but still decided to join Robin's band of merry men, becoming his right-hand man. The battle was a long and bruising encounter, as can be seen in this clip from Robin Hood: Men in Tights.

Overall:- 7/10
 

Update:- I've found another photo of this statue on the internet with the two characters in colour. Not sure if it's the exact same statue or a replica in a different place, but either way here it is in all its glory......
