Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Pelham's Pillar The pillar commemorates Charles Anderson-Pelham, Lord Yarborough, who was responsible for planting twelve and a half million trees on his Brocklesby estate over a thirty six year period, the present day estate covering twenty eight thousand acres. Lord Yarborough`s son laid the foundation stone, and the construction was completed by the Lord`s grandson. The pillar is recorded as having attracted a Royal visitor, namely Prince Albert, shortly after its completion. The stone for this structure incidentally, was brought into Grimsby and after being dressed to size, was hauled up to Caistor Top, a distance of well over 10 miles.
