IMG 8855-001-Thomas Guy Boxed 1
Thomas Guy, who gave buckets of money for the establishment of Guy's Hospital, made his fortune from investments in the South Sea Company, which was heavily involved in the slave trade. His sculpture was surrounded by hoardings when I was there in autumn 2022. The hoardings have since come down for restoration to the sculpture and a plaque explaining his slave trade connection has been put up.
