1. Royal Stag Marker
The Royal hunting pack used to meet annually in Maidenhead on Easter Mondays. One particularly special Royal stag, known as Ceterwayd, was protected by the crown. Riders would endeavour to touch the animal during the hunt as a symbol of their horsemanship.
As part of the "Maidenhead Memories Sculpture Series" Shanly Homes commissioned father and son duo Brian and George Fell to sculpt the Royal Stag.
Erected 2022 by Shanly Homes.
