Trafalgar Square
London, England WC2N 5DN

The Beatty Bust, located in Trafalgar Square, London, commemorates Admiral Earl Beatty, who was born in Nantwich and became the youngest non-royal to achieve the rank of Rear Admiral. Unveiled on October 21, 1948, alongside the bust of Admiral Jellicoe, it features a fountain and bronze sculptural groups, with a third bust of Cunningham added later in 1967.

This memorial was created by Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, and sculptor William McMillan. The busts were originally positioned directly north of their associated fountains but were relocated in 2003 during the square's reconfiguration.
