Description
The John Sanger Memorial is a life-size marble sculpture of a mourning horse, featuring drapery and a bowed head. It is set on a tall pedimented marble plinth, which is decorated in relief with equestrian emblems such as a horseshoe and crossed whips, intertwined with roses and poppies. The base of the plinth prominently displays the name 'SANGER' in bold relief. On the front panel, there is an inscription dedicated to John Sanger, along with a poem. The rear of the memorial is simpler, lacking the emblems at the top, and includes a raised panel with inscriptions honoring John Sanger's wife Elizabeth, who died in 1892, and his son William Frederick, who died in 1893. The sculptor of this memorial is not known.
