Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Burnley War Memorial, Towneley Park, Burnley. Unveiled on 12 December 1926. Towneley Park adjoins Towneley Hall, the historic seat of the Towneley and O'Hagan families and now the property of the Corporation of Burnley. In the form of a cenotaph, the plinth is of granite, the side figures, each about 8 feet high, of bronze, and the cenotaph proper of Portland stone to a height of 20 feet. At each side of the cenotaph is a female figure, the one in this photograph on the right representing the sister or wife bringing garlands (the one on the left representing the mother bringing a wreath). The two bronze figures represent modeller Louis Weingartner’s swan song before his retirement to his native Switzerland. Work arranged and managed by Walter Gilbert. Bronze cast and stone machine-carved by H. H. Martyn of Cheltenham. Work arranged by Walter Gilbert in association with Donald Gilbert, Louis Weingartner and H, H, Martyn of Cheltenham.
