Is it an academic or perhaps an ecclesiastical site?

Is the statue itself of significance to the site?

Somewhere like dyrham park? I don't remember anything like this there though.

Why do the ones who know the answer not say?

Dyrham park is Cotswolds and he said not Cotswolds.

I wanted to say Sudeley Castle, but that's also Cotswolds

Correct!

The statue is named 'Millie' erected to represent the connection with the wool and cloth trade

Bit of everything apparently...
Standing proudly in the town's Festival Garden is a life-size bronze statue of a mill girl affectionately known as 'Millie' who personifies Bradford on Avon's rich past and it's bright hopes for the future. Millie was sculpted by Dr John Willats and unveiled in 2000. She represents the three millennia of Bradford's existence and also the town's links with the cloth and wool trade. Millie's dress with high waistband suggests the eighteenth century, the period of Bradford on Avon's greatest prosperity. The dove being released towards the town symbolizes the free spirit of the third millennium, bringing freedom and hope.
