Site: Makram Ali (1 memorial)

N4, Biggerstaff Street, Clifton Court play area, Six Acres Estate

In this little garden Makram Ali used to play with his grandchildren. It is not publicly accessible but, as we arrived, a resident was leaving the building and asked us what we were looking for. He remembered the tree and kindly allowed us in to take our photographs.
