General notes
"The Victoria Monument was given to the town by Lord Ashton in 1907. It was originally intended for Williamson Park. The sculptor was Herbert Hampton. Queen Victoria and four lions are in bronze. The panels have reliefs of eminent Victorians, including Lancaster-born Richard Owen and Florence Nightingale. The corner pieces represent Truth, Wisdom, Justice and Freedom" From http://www.archaeologyuk.org/lahs/Tour/Dalton.htm 14/04/2015 In the background you can see part of the signage for the Hippodrome Theatre. This had been a Catholic chapel and then a Temperance hall before being used as a Theatre from 1901-1930. It later became a cinema and is now used as offices as Palatine Hall. (14/04/2015) )
