The Duke of Sutherland is a100ft statue (including the plinth) of the 1st Duke of Sutherland. It was erected in 1834, a year after his death, by "a mourning and grateful tenantry" to "a judicious, kind and liberal landlord", presumably not numbering among them the 15,000 or so forcibly removed during the clearances of the Sutherland estate.
