A bronze statue of this accomplished lady will be unveiled today in Parliament Square - the first of a woman there.
Suffragette and feminist, she was born/educated in the lovely seaside town of Aldeburgh.
Her sister was Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, this nation's first female doctor.
Only now is the role of these women - Pankhurst and the likes - being acknowledged, in beginning the changes to our aristocracy led country.
To a more equal one...
