Montagu Monuments at Warkton Church

St Edmund’s Church in Warkton will be open between 10am and 2pm on Saturday 12 September as part of Ride, Stride and Drive with access to the Montagu Monuments.
The monuments constitute one of the finest and most important sets of funerary monuments in the country.
Their importance owes to a number of factors: the skill and brilliance of the artists who created them; their significance as memorials of key figures in British history telling the story of the Montagu family over three generations; and that although each monument is a masterpiece in its own right, the combined importance of the four sculptures as a collection is an exceptional illustration to the evolution of this artistic style in Britain over nearly a century.
