Description

The monument is a tall octagonal obelisk or pinnacle, about five metres in height, somewhat resembling an Eleanor cross. The heavily-moulded plinth is of stone - the base and coping of sandstone, with granite between - and bears the names of the architect, metalworker and mason. The lowest stage of the copper-clad superstructure has a pattern of stamped quatrefoils, with a coat of arms in relief on each cardinal face. The uppermost stage is a series of cusped Gothic canopies, surmounted by a spire which has lost parts of its copper decoration.
