Killigrew Monument, Falmouth, Cornwall, late 19th or early 20th century. The monument, a granite pyramid, is believed to honour the Killigrew family, a notable local family that included the town's founder, Sir John Killigrew. The last member of the family, Martin Lister Killigrew, left instructions for it to be erected after his death, with the stipulation that it should be devoid of any inscription. The monument was moved from its original location in 1836 and moved again to its present site in 1871. Lantern slide.
