Jesse Boot memorial
This is the memorial at the entrance to Highfields Park. The inscription reads:
Our great citizen Jesse Boot, Lord trent
Before him lies a monument to his industry, behind, and everlasting monument to his benevolence.
The bust faces out towards the Factory that he built on the outskirts of Beeston, while behind him lie Highfields Park and the University, both of which were the result of his gifts.
