The first plaque telling the legacy of Liverpool's links with slavery is being unveiled. The plaque will be located outside World Museum Liverpool, on William Brown Street, and will explain the history behind the street name and its origins with the slave trade. It is the first of around ten streets which will become home to an ‘Eric Scott Lynch Slavery Histories’ plaque, named in honour of the activist and historian who passed away last year. Laurence Westgaph is Historian-in-residence at National Museums Liverpool and he's on the panel which has facilitated the plaques.
