Edward Colston statue placed in quiet corner of Bristol museum

As a result of consultation with local people, visitors must make deliberate choice to see toppled statue of slave trader

It is undoubtedly the most well-known artefact in Bristol's waterside museum, but rather than being given a prominent position it has been tucked away in a modest case at the back of a first-floor gallery.

Finding the right setting in M Shed for the statue of the slave trader Edward Colston, which was pulled from a plinth in the city and thrown into the harbour during a Black Lives Matter protest in 2020, has been a delicate task.
