Website: Stan Laurel Statue

A Stan Laurel Statue stands on the site of the Eden Theater (which Stan's father refurbished/managed). The statue doesn't stand far from the family home at 66 Princes Street. The young Stan was christened in St Peter's Church and later attended King James I Grammar School as a boarding pupil. The Eden Theatre closed in 1969.
