The plan and design of this Monument was given
by our countryman, John Nash, Esq. F.R.S.
Architect to the King.
The ornaments were executed by
E.H. Bailey, Esq. R.A.
And the whole was erected by Mr. Daniel
Mainwaring, of the town of Carmarthen,
In the year 1826 and 1827.

On the north side is the translation of the above in Welsh; and on the
top of the pedestal, on each side of the square, are trophies. The top
of the column is also square, and on each side are imitative cannons.
The statue of the hero surmounts the whole. He is wrapped in a cloak,
and is supported by a baluster, round which are emblems of spears.

W.H.
