The Poulsom Memorial, Derby Park

The Poulsom Memorial commemorates William Poulsom and his wife Mary. William became Lord Mayor of Bootle in 1880 and later a magistrate. Mary was responsible for the Penny Concerts held each Saturday evening during the winter months and for other good deeds amongst the poor of the borough. William died in 1903 and his wife soon after, the memorial was paid for by public subscription and was recently restored by specialist stone mason Nick Roberson who hand carved four replacement figures of children in ancient classical costume working on archive photographs of the originals.
