Sledmere is a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, about 7 miles (11 km) north-west of Driffield on the B1253 road.
The Sledmere Monument is about 2 miles (3 km) south-east of the village, along the B1252 road, on top of Garton Hill.
It is 120 feet (37 m) tall and is a tribute to Sir Tatton Sykes, 4th Baronet, built by his friends in 1865.
The Wagoners' Memorial in the village, designed by Sir Mark Sykes, 6th Baronet, is dedicated to the Wolds Wagoners Reserve, a corps that Sir Mark raised from the local population to fight in the First World War.
Sir Mark himself served as a diplomat in the Middle East during the war, and died of the Spanish flu in Paris during the peace negotiations of 1919: he is represented by one of the brasses on the monument, in the dress of a crusader, and with the inscription "Laetare Jerusalem" ("Rejoice Jerusalem").
