1. Cilla Black Marker

Inscription. This statue of Cilla Black was commissioned by her family after her sad passing in 2015. Cilla worked as a cloakroom attendant in the Cavern in the early 60s before her successful music career began. The family chose this location, standing in the doorway of what was once the entrance to the Cavern Club, as some of her happiest memories were here in Mathew Street. Cilla Black became such a global superstar that even Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones came to pay tribute to his friend in 2022.

Erected by The Cavern Club.
