Olympian

This statue of Steve Ovett was unveiled 3 years ago to celebrate the 2012 Games. It was created by Peter Webster and based on an earlier statue which was cut down and stolen from Preston Park in 2007. It's thought it may have been melted down for scrap. Steve Ovett, together with Sebastian Coe, dominated middle distance running in the late 70s and early 80s. He was born and educated in Brighton, but now lives in Australia.
