Description:
View across the Park with the Jubilee Monument in the background. Location: Endcliffe Park, visible from Rustlings Road. Originally at the top of Fargate, moved in 1905 to be replaced by the statue of Queen Victoria by Alfred Turner (now itself in Endcliffe Park and visible from Hunter's Bar roundabout). Description: Stone memorial, c. 10m high, surrounded by four cast iron gas lamps. It consists of obelisk of red polished granite set above a carved stone capitol above a block of grey polished granite. This latter carried an inscription: " ERECTED / TO COMMEMORATE / THE JUBILEE / OF / QUEEN VICTORIA / 1887" The obelisk is mounted on stone blocks set on a paved area on a patch of leveled ground overlooking the playing fields in the park. Commission: Approved by Lord Mayor's advisory committee. Comment: The gas lamps have been removed from their holders, which remain.
