Description

Marble sculpture of a life-size marble mourning horse with drapery and bowed head. It stands on a tall pedimented marble plinth, decorated in relief with equestrian emblems such as a horseshoe and crossed whips, entwined with roses and poppies. The base of the plinth has the name 'SANGER' in bold relief. There is an inscription to John Sanger and a poem on the front panel. The rear is plainer, without the emblems at the top, and the raised panel bears an inscription to John Sanger's wife Elizabeth (d.1892) and son William Frederick (d.1893). The sculptor of the memorial is not known.
