Monument Circa 50 Yards East Of Etal Manor

This monument, located approximately 50 yards east of Etal Manor, was constructed around 1850 and 1893 from sandstone. It features a square, moulded base and a tapering rectangular block that stands about 5 feet high, topped with a shallow pyramidal shape. The monument is inscribed with the following text: "As an humble mark of gratitude to providence for happiness passed on these estates during a period of thirty-two years. Frederick Fitz Clarence had this inscription made on leaving for India."

Beneath this inscription, there is a moulded panel that reads: "11th January 1898 As a tribute of thankfulness to the bounteous giver of all good for unnumbered mercies during his life James Laing inscribed this on his 70th birthday." It is noted that Lord Fitz Clarence died in India in 1854.
