William Coulson Monument

A true cultural behemoth. worthy of a memorial - worth a visit for anyone genuinely interested in history. We stand on the shoulders of such giants. Far be it for us to judge when we walk the streets and benefit from the world we collectively inherited from them and quite frankly aren’t capable of recreating if we had to.
