John Harford Monument (1573), Bosbury

Bosbury, John Harford Monument (1573)


Two dramatic monuments, in the Chancel - this one on the south wall, for John HARFORD, d.1559. He and his son Richard were stewards of the Bishop of Hereford's Manor in Bosbury. John's Monument was erected in 1573, and by John Guldo of Hereford. The sarcophagus rests on the bodies of 2 lions; there are Tudor roses on the coffers, and the pediment has leaves surrounding a roundel, whilst above the effigy are decorations of flowers and shields.
