One of the Maries? No Elsie Inglis? Any clue as to the house? Not Elsie Inglis, and it is currently not a "house" |

OK this is obviously too difficult. So perhaps a recap and few more clues First, it's Scotland, where the lady in question was born and bred. The "house" in the background isn't a house and never was but is part of why the statue is there. It's use today is commercial. There is a "medical" connection. She was a pioneer in what she did. I took the picture in 2009 when I was working on the site. She used her rich husbands money to do her good works. |

It's Elizabeth Crichton. Indeed it is, on the Crichton Estate Dumfries. My old company had its call center in one of the old "pavilions". Amazing place. I had never even heard of her before I went there. PM sent. Over to you. PS The "house" in the background is in fact The Aston Hotel where I first ate haggis!! |
