Thanks for that, I did wonder about slavery elsewhere in the world, but Wiki pages make no reference to it, and there is no suggestion that the dock itself had any connections to the evil of slavery.

Someone has posted a piece about his involvement in the Brazilian slave trade on the NSNO forum, which does appear to implicate him, unfortunately I don’t know how to share these links but it’s on there stadium thread.

Pretty damning stuff. I feel a little vindicated about my poor research as it shows his involvement has been airbrushed from history. I think it might be more appropriate to go with the suggestion of information and context on his history, as I am not sure we will get consent to remove the name plaque in the Regent Road wall.
 

It depends if we go down the sponsorship route.

The Donnay Dockside Arena

Or if you want to include sponsorship and use the Bramley Moore name.

The B&M Arena

From what little research I have done (Wiki) Bramley-Moore is not connected to the slave trade, apparently he made his money in the sugar trade in the period after the abolition of the slave trade.

Grown by Brazilian slaves transported there by ships chartered by Mr Moore himself
