The Bega Statue
A statue commissioned from Colin Telfer

The Bega statue by Colin Telfer

As part of the village's Millennium Celebrations, and there were many, it was felt that there should be one action which would perhaps still be in the village for the Centennial celebrations if not the next Millennium ones!

The obvious choice was a statue, and equally obvious, was the subject matter - St Bega, after whom the village is named.

This of course mean that St Bees now has two Bega statues - the original one in the Priory by Josefina de Vasconcellos,and the Millennium one by the railway station.
