Summary

[edit]
Description

Churchyard of St Mary, Troy Road, Morley...

The Scatcherds were established in Morley by the end of the 17th century. The best known member of the family is the antiquary Norrison Cavendish Scatcherd (1780-1853). His works included a History of Morley and Memoirs of the Celebrated Eugene Aram (a man thought by Scatcherd to have been wrongly executed for the murder of Daniel Clark in 1759). The style of the mausoleum suggests that it was constructed in the late 18th century. Although it could have been built by Norrison Cavendish Scatcherd, it seems more likely to be the work of his father, Watson Scatcherd, a successful lawyer who was one of the trustees of the old Church of St Mary (demolished 1875). The stone plaques on the exterior merely say THE MAUSOLEUM OF THE SCATCHERD FAMILY and PARTICULARS OF THE INTERMENTS ON THE TABLETS INSIDE.
