A PLAQUE remembering the woman who inspired the Beatles’ hit, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, is to be placed in Mathew Street.
Lucy Vodden, who died in 2009 aged 46, was depicted in a watercolour painting a young Julian Lennon created at nursery school.
The artwork was the inspiration for the classic Lennon/McCartney song.
The bronze plaque has been commissioned by St Thomas' Lupus Trust, who have worked with Julian to promote awareness of the disease which claimed Mrs Vodden’s life.
Campaigns director Angie Davidson said s
he was “thrilled” that Liverpool City Council had approved the request.
She added: “We thought this would be a lovely way to remember Lucy and help raise lupus awareness no end, something I’m sure Lucy would have been thrilled with. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is a song everyone knows, no matter how old they are or where they’re from.
