The Frieze

By the Sheffield sculptor Benjamin Creswick (1853-1946).

On the outside of the wall facing Warwick Lane will be seen a finely carved terracotta frieze by the Sheffield sculptor Benjamin Creswick (1853-1946).

The frieze shows cutlers working at their craft. Creswick was a pupil of John Ruskin and had worked as a grinder in Sheffield.

He exhibited frequently at the Royal Academy, but few examples of his work survive.
