A splendid memorial
Completed in 1833, this splendid classical building with its domed tower was designed by Sir Robert Smirke for the 4th Duke of Newcastle as a mausoleum for his wife who died shortly after giving birth to twins. The nave is separated from the mausoleum by an elegant Ionic reredos screen.
