Stone Roses On their cover to Love Spreads, the first single on much anticipated debut album follow-up, Second Coming, guitarist John Squire choose one of the four stone cherubs on the Newport Bridge to design the sleeve. The cherubs on the bridge are modelled after Newport’s coat of arms, which contains a cherub with winged sea lions. The cherub design was subsequently used on many pieces of Second Coming merchandise. Some of the bridge’s cherubs were subsequently ripped from their mounts, allegedly taken as souvenirs by fans of the band.
