The Sir Keith Park Statue: A Tribute to Valor in London

Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving from anywhere in Devon, take the M5 motorway. Follow the signs for Exeter and then merge onto the A303 towards London. Continue on the A303 until you reach the M3, then merge onto the M3 towards London. Follow the M3 until it merges with the M25, then take the M25 towards Dartford. From the M25, take the exit for the A2 towards London. Continue until you reach the A201, which will take you directly into central London. Look for signs for Waterloo Place. The Sir Keith Park statue is located at Waterloo Pl, London SW1Y 5ER. Parking is available in nearby car parks, but be aware that parking fees may apply.

• Train

  For those using public transport, head to your nearest train station and take a train to London. Major stations in Devon include Exeter, Plymouth, and Torquay. Book a direct train to London Paddington or London Waterloo. Once you arrive at London Waterloo, exit the station and walk towards Waterloo Place. The statue is a short 10-minute walk from the station. Follow the signs for the South Bank and cross the bridge towards the Embankment; then, continue straight until you reach Waterloo Place.
