Malmaison hotel/Seaman’s mission plaque


Published on Thursday 9 February 2012 12:17

ONLINE reader Jim asks: “I have a question about a building in Leith, once a seaman’s mission and now the Malmaison hotel. I’ve been told there is, or was, a plaque there honouring Ebenezer Wyse, a seaman born in Greenock circa 1929. Is this correct and if so can anyone tell me what is or was written on it?”

Is there a burning question about life in the Capital you’d like answered? Maybe you are looking for an old friend, want to find a specialist shop or service or want to find more about the history of a building. If Google can’t help, maybe our readers can!
