Description |
English: Killigrew Pyramid, Arwenack Street, opposite Arwenack Manor House, Falmouth. It is devoid of any inscription. Erected by Martin Lister (d.1745), of Staffordshire, who adopted the surname Killigrew in lieu of his patronymic, having married in 1689 Anne Killigrew (d.1727), youngest daughter of Sir Peter Killigrew, 2nd Baronet (d.1705), of Arwenack. He died without progeny, being thus the last of the Killigrews. He wrote History of Killigrew Family (published in Journal of the Royal Institution of Cornwall, April 1871). "Local gossip has it that there are two glass bottles inside the monument, last seen when the obelisk was moved in the 1830s, containing something - perhaps a clue as to what Martin wanted you to think while you look at his monument" (www.bbc). This oil painting depicts the deconstruction prior to its move in 1836/8,[1] Tregellas, Walter Hawken (1831–1894), Cornish Worthies, 1884, Vol.2, The Killigrews: Diplomatists, Warriors, Courtiers and Poets, footnote pp.115-116: "This monument was originally placed on a site which overlooked on one side the remains of the family mansion, and on the other the little lake (formerly an arm of the sea, and known in Leland's time as 'Levine Prisklo'), which was once the well-filled swannery of the Killigrews. It was moved in 1836 to make way for the houses now known as 'Grove Place' and again in 1871 to its present appropriate site opposite the Arwenack Manor-office" |
