More about this scene

A little north of the attractive village of Naseby, on the Market Harborough road, this 40 ft high stone obelisk commemorates the Battle of Naseby at which the New Model Army routed the Royalists in 1645, towards the end of the English Civil War. Fairfax's New Model army assembled here before descending to the battlefield. The monument was erected in 1823 by the local lord of the manor.
