Summary
| Description |
English: Detail of the Wye Memorial Crown The Crown Memorial, cut into the hillside outside Wye, is a unique landmark constructed in mid-June 1902 out of flintstones (the stones are painted to increase the 'whiteness' of the crown) to commemorate the Coronation of King Edward VII. The King viewed the Crown illumination from Eastwell Park on 02 July 1904. The Crown is part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) surrounded by rare downland herbs, orchids and butterflies.
To mark the Millennium celebrations a Crown Millennium Stone was added just above the Memorial. See http://www.lhi.org.uk/projects_directory/projects_by_region/south_east/kent/wye_crown_project_2002/index.html for more details on the Memorial. |
