Statue Of Diana The Huntress In Car Park To South Of Lytham Hall

The Statue of Diana the Huntress is located in the car park to the south of Lytham Hall. It is probably from the late 18th century and is said to have been brought from Greece by a member of the Clifton family. The statue is made of white marble and is mounted on a rectangular plinth that is enclosed by a 20th-century circular wall. The figure of Diana is slightly less than life-size and depicts her in mid-stride, with her left hand clutching a deer by the horns and her right hand reaching over her shoulder to draw an arrow from her quiver. This statue is one of two garden statues; the other statue, which depicts Venus after the bath, is now located in the north entrance hall of the house but was previously in a rose garden to the north.
