Description
This figure of a king formed part of the elaborate market cross at Bristol, that stood at two different sites in the city before it was dismantled in 1762. In 1764 the merchant banker Henry Hoare bought the cross to embellish the grounds of his estate at Stourhead, Wiltshire, where it remains. This figure, and three others displayed nearby, were replaced by copies in 1980. The identity of the individual kings is unknownm though they may represent John, Henry III, Edward I and Edward III.
