May 2005

Although marked as a drinking fountain on the 1905 map, that part of the monument is no longer working.

This appears to be made of the same red Mull granite used in parts of Sefton Park and St Georges Hall.

The base bears an inscription to the founder of Princes Park, Richard Vaughn Yates.

Many thanks yet again to Marky for the pictures and information.
