Has anyone noticed the soldier's face/sculpture set in the wall of the terraced houses on Abbeydale Road (opposite Moonlight Curtains) - looks like WW1 guy - just wondered if anyone knew anything about it as I've searched the net and nothing

This portrait is of a high ranking soldier called Wolsley, the road nearby is named after him. He was the subject of an article in the Stars RETRO supplement a few weeks ago, very interesting life he led too.
