The Pug Returns!
Sir Peter Blake after the pug unveiling, 2008
The Trust presented a resin copy of the pug dog from Hogarth’s High Road statue to William Hogarth School in Chiswick. This was funded by a generous gift from a local donor. In 2010 someone backed their car into it and damaged it severely.
We are pleased to report that after a long negotiation with insurers, Hugh Brendon, one of our founder members, has organised a replacement statue which has now been installed in the playground.
