More about this scene
Only a year old when this picture was taken, this pink granite obelisk was erected in memory of Christian Victor, Prince of Schleswig Holstein and grandson of Queen Victoria, who died in the Boer War. It also serves as a memo- rial to the men of the Gloucestershire, Somerset and Devonshire regiments who died in the same campaign. A chip on the south west corner is shrapnel damage from the blitz.
