Proud lion, with leopards

 Lion sculpture, Lion Hotel Shrewsbury

The proud lion of the Lion Hotel in Shrewsbury stands atop a loggerheads device, though in this instance, it has a chevron separating the three leopards' heads from each other.  The basic loggerheads faces also would have dangling tongues - but not here.
Curiously, this prominent sculpture is round the back of the hotel, facing a small municipal car-park, so most tourists never see it. Shame.  

Does anyone have a date for this?  Please use the comments box below if you can help...

If you'd like more of these loggerheads sightings as soon as they are posted (weekly), just use the Follow By Email box (which you will see in the upper right-hand corner of this page)
