'A Stanley memorial, I presume?'
The birthplace of Victorian explorer Henry Morton Stanley is being asked if it wants to honour him with a memorial.
Stanley was born in Denbigh, Denbighshire, and also lived as a child in a workhouse in nearby St Asaph.
He is best known for finding the missing explorer David Livingstone in east Africa in 1871, greeting him with the words, "Dr Livingstone, I presume?"
Despite his Denbighshire connections, Stanley has never been commemorated in the area, apart from some local exhibitions.
Denbighshire council is now carrying out a feasibility study in the area to see what kind of memorial, if any, people would like to see.
