Ashton Memorial
The Grade 1 listed Ashton Memorial was commissioned by Lancaster industrialist Lord Ashton as a tribute to his late wife Jessy. It was designed by John Belcher and completed in 1909.
Externally, the dome is made of copper. The main construction material is Portland stone although the steps are made of Cornish granite.
Around the dome are sculptures by Herbert Hampton representing Commerce, Science, Industry and Art.

The memorial stands in an elevated position, and can easily be seen going north on the M6 in the region of Lancaster. Unfortunately the building was closed when we visited, nevertheless it's well worth a walk up from the city centre.
