The whole statue is here More on Milligan, following on from the comment below by Notes www.portcities.org.uk/london/server/show/conMediaFile.604... whence we learn that the statue was erected in 1813 to this sugar magnate to created the West India docks, and was moved and re-erected in 1875, so perhaps above plaque is the original one.
