Description
This monument and drinking trough dates to 1897, with earlier origins, and was restored in 1957 by Philip Pape of Barton. It's constructed of limestone ashlar for the column and pedestal, with a sandstone trough and green slate plaques. The monument features a square section pedestal with a moulded plinth and cornice, including a carved lion’s head waterspout on the front. A tapered column rises from the pedestal, with a moulded base and capital; it is topped with a square abacus and a restored carved crown. A large, circular drinking trough is attached to the pedestal. An inscribed plaque on the front of the pedestal commemorates the 60th year of Queen Victoria’s reign and the memory of Frederick Horsley, who served as steward of the estate for 42 years. A smaller plaque below records the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth and the 1957 restoration.
