Description: Lord Chatham's Urn, Stowe - Buckinghamshire, England. This is a replica of the original urn. The Seeley Guidebook from 1832 states that the Chatham Urn was "originally erected by Hester Grenville Countess of Chatham [sister of Earl Temple], in memory of William the great Earl of Chatham, her husband, at Burton Pynsent, in Somersetshire, his country seat. When her ladyship died [1803], and Burton Pynsent was disposed of, the Urn was given by John Earl of Chatham to the Duke of Buckingham, and placed in its present situation."
