Pictures of the unveiling of the memorial to Joseph Banks

A new monument to Sir Joseph Banks was unveiled at Lincoln Cathedral on 26 May 2000.
Joseph Banks sailed with Captain Cook on the Endeavour, 1768-1771.

Ten members of the CCSU attended. A report appeared in the July issue of Cook's Log

The lightness of the writing and the darkness of the floral design makes the taking of good photographs difficult. Click on a picture below for a bigger version.
