Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tucked away unobtrusively at the foot of a slope where Charlotte Square meets Queen Street is a grand memorial to the Victorian writer and Christian philanthropist, Catherine Sinclair (1800-64). Her best known work, 'Holiday House', published in 1839, promoted the ideas of the German educationalist Froebel and is regarded as a watershed in children's literature because of its benevolent, non-moralising attitude to children's misbehaviour. The monument was erected in the late 1860s and is the work of John Rhind
