I am unable to corroborate the popular story about the Duke's mother having the monument relocated because she wanted "not to see or be reminded of my infernal son" - the Duke's mother, Lady Rachael Russell, died in 1777, 55 years before the monument was built. If anyone can source this story more accurately please reinstate it. Cnbrb (talk) 15:04, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Since you can see the house from the monument, it is obvious you can see the monument from the house. Although sight lines may have changed over time, it seems a doubtful story to me. 16:10, 13 January 2021 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:1482:A100:F024:A99F:B261:19AF (talk)
