Effigy, Robert Southey

June 30. A new Church at Upperby was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of the diocese, and the next day his lordship consecrated Renwick Church, which has been rebuilt and enlarged.
A recumbent effigy of the poet Southey, executed in marble, by Mr. Lough, of Newcastle, has been place in Crosthwaite Church, at the expense of James Stanger, Esq. The costume is a plain gown or academical robes. The right hand rests on a volume by his side; the left is placed on his breast. This is the third monument erected to the memory of the Poet, there being a bust in Bristol cathedral, and another in the Poet's Corner of Westminster abbey.
