Barrett Steel Proudly Supports the On Freedoms Wings Monument in Honor of Lancaster Bomber Squadrons

08 November 2023

We are honoured to supply steel for the On Freedoms Wings Monument, a symbol of remembrance and tribute to the heroic Lancaster Bomber Squadrons, set to be constructed on the Lincolnshire/Nottinghamshire border.
Designed by the Bomber Gateway Trust and fabricated by Timmins Engineering & Construction, the Monument will leave an incredible mark on the landscape, standing at an impressive 29 meters in height and stretching 26 meters in length. With a remarkable wingspan of 31 meters, this monument will surpass the Angel of the North by 9 meters.

As we approach Remembrance Sunday this weekend, this project holds a special significance in commemorating the brave Lancaster Bomber Squadrons. We are immensely proud to contribute to this monument, providing high quality Structural Sections to turn a vision into a reality.

Jonathan Atkinson, our Sales Director commented ‘’We are proud to be involved with such a prestigious project. The Lancaster Bomber forms part of Lincolnshire’s heritage, and this Iconic landmark will pay respect to our service men and women of this great country.’’

The unofficial unveiling of the On Freedoms Wings Monument is eagerly anticipated and will undoubtedly become a place for reflection and remembrance. We look forward to seeing the completed monument.
