Die lebensgroße Edelstahl-Skulptur wurde im Jahr 1997 von dem Goldschmied und Metallbildhauer Albert Sous aus Würselen bei Aachen geschaffen. Sie wurde von Kardinal Karl Lehmann anläßlich des 1600. Todestag des Martin von Tours in Auftrag gegeben, jenes Heiligen Martin, von dem man sich erzählt, er habe seinen wertvollen Umhang mit einem frierenden Bettler geteilt.

Just west of the Adelphi Theatre, there is a narrow building (number 417 Strand) with half-timbering just below its steeply angled roof. Now home to The Port House tapas bar, this was once a pub called ‘The Bun House’ (opened about 1890), and then later ‘the Tram Shed’, and then ‘Yates Brothers Wine Lodge, which closed in 1981 (see: pubshistory.com/LondonPubs/StMartins/BunShop.shtml ).
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
Her love rains down on me easy as the breeze
I listen to her breathing it sounds like the waves on the sea
I was thinking all about her, burning with rage and desire
We were spinning into darkness; the earth was on fire
She could take it back, she might take it back someday
As I walked into the churchyard an elderly lady came out from the church. You're just in time she called to me. She explained that she was the keyholder this week and the door was open to visitors..We looked down at my muddy boots [and dog]. I best just take a few photographs from outside I said...but she would hear none of it and insisted I went inside for a look around...Everyone is welcome here she said.... So glad I went in as its an amazing place.
