Benjamin Carter's Sphinx
Lacock Abbey, Wiltshire.
In 1755 Squire John Ivory Talbot had the new hall built and some old chimneys were moved into the grounds as a garden ornament. The Squire got a mason called Benjamin Carter to carve him a sphinx to go atop his renovated Tuscan columns (formerly his chimneys).
There is a myth that when there is a full moon at midnight, the sphinx jumps down from her resting place and walks across the park to drink from the river.
