Nelson Monument and Railings to West 350 South of Rashercap

The Nelson Monument, along with its railings, is located 350 meters south of Rashercap and dates from the early 19th century. The monument is an obelisk made of ashlar stone, while the railings are cast iron set on a squared stone dwarf wall. The obelisk measures approximately 2.7 meters square at the base and stands about 12 meters tall, featuring a three-meter high base with a plinth and square cornice. Above this, a tapering shaft rises to a flattened pyramidal cap.

An inscribed panel on the east side of the base reads: "NOT TO COMMEMORATE THE PUBLIC VIRTUES AND HEROIC ACHIEVEMENTS OF NELSON WHICH IS THE DUTY OF ENGLAND BUT TO THE MEMORY OF PRIVATE FRIENDSHIP THIS ERECTION IS DEDICATED BY ALEXANDER DAVISON SWARLAND HALL." The cornice above bears the inscription "VICTORY 21ST OCTOBER 1805," and the shaft includes the words "ENGLAND EXPECTS EVERY MAN TO DO HIS DUTY," along with the initials O.S.B.M. on the base.

The railings form a half-circle behind the obelisk and consist of a dwarf wall with low arched coping that supports square bars with moulded flat tops. The standards feature curved support brackets from internal buttresses on the dwarf wall. At the time of the survey, the railings were noted to be in poor condition.
