Southend on Sea... knowledge?
We had a really long walk into Southend today. Ever since we visited as a little girl this pub has had this statue above its door. The pub means butterfly and can not understand the significance. However it has always been there for as long as I can remember.
Can anyone help please with any info ? x

I only live down the road in Benfleet, but I do not recall even seeing that! Shows I walk around with blinkers on most of the time!

I live in Rayleigh and I have never noticed it either.
I know where the Papillon is but that is the extent of my knowledge.
