Description

The Burns Monument, located in Burns Statue Square in Ayr, was created by sculptor George A Lawson in 1892, with architectural design by James A Morris. The monument features a stepped plinth made of Aberdeen granite, which is square in shape. Each face of the plinth has bronze relief tablets that depict four different scenes. A pulvinated frieze runs around the monument, and it is topped with a bronze figure of Robert Burns, who is facing south. The site is enclosed by replacement grey iron railings in a circular plan.
