Monument to Hugh, Earl Grosvenor

The Monument to Hugh, Earl Grosvenor, is in the graveyard of St Mary's Church, Eccleston, Cheshire, England.

It was designed by Detmar Blow, possibly assisted by Fernand Billerey, and the sculptor was Emile Madeline.

[2] The panels are decorated with heraldic symbols of the Grosvenor family, and include portcullises, wheat sheaves, coronets, and roses.

Along the top of the railings, and going round all four sides, is an inscription reading:[3][4] The tombstone is inscribed:[6] At the head of the tomb are three bronze figures, each bearing one of the Earl's given names; Edward I with a model of a church, Saint George with a sword and with his foot on a dragon's neck, and Saint Hugh with a book, and wearing bishop's robes and a mitre.

[7] The citation in the National Heritage List for England describes it as "a tomb of admirable workmanship".
