Later I saw this plaque near the top of the steps. It records how in the 1660s a wealthy Bristolian called Jonathan Blackwell paid for the original steps (subsequently rebuilt in 19th C). Blackwell, who was a vintner, later moved to the capital and became an Alderman of - the City of London! 2 of 2.
