Description
The Tomb of Nathaniel Booth, Lord Delamer, is located in St John's Churchyard and dates from around 1770. This chest tomb is made of stone and features a rectangular plan set on a stepped base. The long sides are finely carved with paired swags, while the ends are panelled. The lid has a battered design and is adorned with carved lions on the north and south sides, and eagles on the east and west. Originally, the tomb was topped with an urn. Historically, Lord Delamer was a Whig politician who was appointed as Surveyor of the Greenwax Money in 1727. He resided at Burgh House in New End Square until 1758, when he inherited Dunham Massey in Cheshire.
