Description

The monument to Jet is located in the dogs' graveyard approximately 50 metres north of the Gothic Temple in Bramham Park. Erected in 1764, it is made of magnesian limestone and features a tall quatrefoil column adorned with two annulets, a moulded cruciform cap, and a banded ball and cushion finial. The monument stands on a short cubic pedestal that has painted lettering, which is now worn and mostly illegible. It is known to have originally recorded the death of Jet, a dog that lived for 18 years.
