The supremely elegant and refined Brocklesby Mausoleum, designed by James Wyatt and completed in 1792. Circular, with rusticated basement, fluted Roman Doric columns, balustrade, shallow copper dome and lantern. In niches behind the columns are delicately-carved sarcophagi (
TA1308 : Detail of mausoleum near Great Limber). The mausoleum itself is circled by railings punctuated by more sarcophagi decorated with swags and rams' heads. The classical precedents for Wyatt's design are the Temples of Vesta at Rome and Tivoli. Grade I listed.
It was built by Charles Anderson Pelham, 1st Baron Yarborough of Brocklesby Park, as a memorial to his wife, Sophia Aufrere.
There are several permissive footpaths in the vicinity.
