It is a Grade II* listed building.[1] HistoryThe statue depicts Queen Anne in full court dress.[1] It was designed by Francis Bird, who had previously made a sculpture of the queen for St Paul's Cathedral,[2] after a commission by Sir Jacob Bancks the local member of parliament for Minehead.[3] Statues of the queen were a "fashionable ornament" during her reign.[4] It was removed from its original site in St Michael's Church during restoration work in 1880. It was to have been placed in the town hall, but following a public subscription for the canopy it was re-erected at its current site in 1893.[5][6] ArchitectureThe statue is made of alabaster. The pedestal and canopy which were added by H Dare Bryan in 1893 are of Carrara marble. Above the statue is a dentilled pediment and cornice [1] References{{Commons category|Queen Anne's Statue, Minehead}}1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Statue of Queen Anne|url=https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1207015|website=National Heritage List for England|publisher=Historic England|accessdate=8 October 2017}} 2. ^{{cite journal|last1=Van Hensbergen|first1=Claudine|title=Carving a Legacy: Public Sculpture of Queen Anne, c.1704-1712|journal=Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies|volume=37|issue=2|pages=229–244|doi=10.1111/1754-0208.12154|year=2014|url=http://nrl.northumbria.ac.uk/16699/1/CVH%20-%20JECS%20Feb%202014%20final%20draft%20-%20upload%20this%20version%20-%20Anne%20%20sculpture%20article%20docx.pdf}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Byford|first=Enid|title=Somerset Curiosities|year=1987|publisher=Dovecote Press|isbn=978-0946159482|page=45}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Smith|first1=Nicola|title=Revival: The Royal Image and the English People (2001)|date=2017|publisher=Routledge|isbn=9781351766074|url=https://books.google.com/?id=TSIuDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT166&lpg=PT166&dq=Public+Monument+Queen+Anne+Minehead#v=onepage&q=Public%20Monument%20Queen%20Anne%20Minehead&f=false}} 5. ^{{IoE|391272|Statue of Queen Anne|accessdate=2 May 2010}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Queen Anne|url=https://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=68121&sos=0|website=Vads|publisher=Public Monuments and Sculpture Association|accessdate=8 October 2017}} 8 : Grade II* listed buildings in West Somerset|Outdoor sculptures in England|Arts in Somerset|Monuments and memorials in Somerset|1719 sculptures|Monuments and memorials to Anne, Queen of Great Britain|Grade II* listed monuments and memorials|Minehead |
