A Cardiff City connection

Another Cardiff statue with a Bute connection. This is Lord Ninian Edward Crichton-Stuart - you can read more about him here.

Apart from being an MP and returning to the army only to be killed in World War I, Bluebird fans of old will be grateful for the fact that he stood as guarantor for their acquisition of their ground and had it named after him - Ninian Park. Times move on and they've now moved across the road to a new home.
