Church of St Martin, Wareham - T E Lawrence effigy (3)
The effigy of T. E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia). Sculpted by his friend Eric Kennington, it was reputedly rejected by Westminster Abbey, St Paul's and Salisbury Cathedrals as being too controversial. Lawrence was killed in a motorcycle accident near his home at Cloud's Hill in 1935, and lies buried in the separate graveyard of St Nicholas Church at Moreton.
