Here are some pictures of sculptor Matthew Billington working on the memorial to mark the Eastville Workhouse burial ground on Rosemary Green.

Over 4000 men, women and children were buried on the site between 1851 and 1895.

The memorial, which is made from Welsh slate, will be unveiled at the end of November.
