Description

The Tomb of Frederick Lillywhite is located in Highgate (Western) Cemetery and dates from around 1854. It is made of marble and features a pedestal with a broken column. The tomb has a stepped plinth that includes an escutcheon with carved crossed cricket bats in front of bails being broken by a ball. The inscribed pedestal has an enriched frieze and a projecting pedimented top adorned with wreaths and ribbons in the tympana and anthemia at the angles.
