Statue of Edward VII, Bootle : ウィキペディア英語版 | Statue of Edward VII, Bootle
The Statue of Edward VII stands in Stanley Park, Bootle, Sefton, Merseyside, England. It was erected to commemorate the Coronation of King Edward VII and consists of a bronze statue of Edward VII on a granite pedestal. The sculptor was George Wade. The statue was given to the borough by the local Member of Parliament, and stands on land given to the borough by Lord Derby. It was unveiled by Lady Derby in 1904. ==History==
The statue commemorates the Coronation of King Edward VII, which took place on 9 August 1902. Edward VII acceded to the throne following the death of his mother, Queen Victoria on 22 January 1901. In March 1902 the Member of Parliament for Bootle, Colonel Thomas Myles Sandys offered to give a statue of the king to the borough. This would be a copy of statues made for other locations by George Wade, who was a personal friend. The borough council accepted the offer, but a long negotiation took place on its location. It was finally agreed to place it in Stanley Gardens, on land that had been donated to the council by Lord Derby also to commemorate the coronation. The statue was made in the foundry of J. W. Singer and Company, and the builder was G. Woods and Son of Bootle. The statue was unveiled on 18 July 1904 by Lady Derby on the same day that Stanley Gardens were opened. In 2010 the statue was damaged by vandals, and was repaired and restored by the National Conservation Centre in Liverpool.
