Signs I Like #8




Not so much signs as plaques, but they do illustrate just how far ahead of his time Robert Owen was. These are in the roof-top garden at the New Lanark World Heritage Site Visitor Centre, in one of Owen's former mill buildings. Read more about Robert Owen here. A truly remarkable Welshman bringing about massively progressive social reform in a time full of remarkable Scots.
