About

The town's connection with the brewing industry is celebrated in a bronze sculpture by James Walter Butler. It was commissioned in 1977 and depicts a local craftsman making a barrel.

The Burton Cooper is a 1977 statue by James Walter Butler currently located in Coopers Square shopping centre, Burton upon Trent. The statue commemorates the close connection of the town to the trade, which was key to Burton's brewing industry. Originally situated outdoors, the statue was relocated inside the centre when it was refurbished in 1994.
