Memorial with the following inscription:

TO THE MEMORY OF
GEORGE WILLIAM, EARL OF COVENTRY.
THE FOLLOWING LINES WERE
INSCRIBED BY HIS SUCCESSOR.
OCT. 25, 1809.

Sacred to him, the Genius of this place!
Who reared these shades.
and formd these sweet retreats:
With evry incense-breathing shrub. adorn'd
And flowers of fairest hue! His culturd taste.
And native fancy bade the scene, around.
Rise perfect and the muse, whom much he lovd
Still joys to haunt it. Crownd with length of days.
He lived-one wish alone unsated: much
His loyal heart had cherish'd a fond hope
To hail this day of jubilee - and close
His earthly course, in Britain's hour of joy
