Monument to Lady John Manners in the Mortuary Chapel of Rawsley [sic] Church, 1861. Marble tomb with sculpture of Catherine Marley and her twelve-day-old daughter, Edith Katherine Mary, in St Katherine's Church, Rowsley, Derbyshire. 'This monument has been erected to the memory of Lady John Manners, who died on the 7th of April, 1854. The style of the monument partakes of the Middle Pointed Gothic, and the materials used are all from Derbyshire. It principally consists of stone known as Darley Dale, with russet marble columns, the carved capitals, the panels, and the figure being of alabaster. The monument is fixed in a mortuary chapel in Rawsley Church, which Lord J. Manners has caused to be erected for its reception. The floor is inlaid with rich marble mosaics, on the centre of which the monument is fixed. The effect is beautiful and striking, and altogether may be considered a good specimen of nineteenth-century art. The whole of the works were designed and carried out under the superintendence of Mr. A. Salvin, jun. The figure was executed by Mr. Calder Marshall, R.A.; and the sculpture and architectural part of the monument was by Mr. James Forsyth, of Edward-street, Hampstead-road'. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
