It's John Bell's Andromeda cast in iron displayed at the Coalbrookdale Museum of Iron
I've found some other photos of this bronze sculpture in Chirk Castle's gardens but no title or information about the artist.

It's a bummer that there isn't much information there, but I'm sure if we contact the people at Chirk they could tell us more I remember them being very knowledgable about the items in the castle so I'm sure they will know a lot about the grounds also.
There was another sculpture in the garden which was blindfolded, I took a few snaps of it as well - I'll have them up later
only a few meters from the bound one. [link]
In fact, changing my search to "chirk blindfolded" got me
here [link]
where it says these two sculptures are signed "A. C. Lucchesi"
who is Andrea Carlo Lucchesi (1860-1925)
I actually ran into his name yesterday associated
with the more modestly dressed "bronze nymph" at Chirk but had found no
connection to these other two nudes. Mystery solved.
