Today me and my dad visited the George Formby Monument which is located in Warrington cemetery if you wish to visit directions can be found from the George Formby Society's excellent website.
If you would like to read more about the restoration of the monument then follow this link to the website:

Thanks for showing this. I have visited it on a number if occassions during my business travels around Great Britain. The image that sticks in my mind, is a contemporary picture of the young George, at his father's funeral, looking at the grave that he himself was buried in 40 plus years later. And, of course, his mother, Elisa, is there as well. But not Beryl, but that is another story.
