Often misspelled as "Lizzie Bryce" or "Lizzy Bryce's Roundabout". Anyway it says on the sign "Lizzy Brice's Roundabout". Lizzie Brice or Bryce (In the old records, her name is always spelled with a Y - Bryce, not Brice). The famous, the wealthy and the notorious are always remembered and history generally overlooks the poor and the ordinary, so it is pleasing to have a memorial to a poor woman, whose life was typical, unremarkable, and yet unique.
