Day 306/18. A memorial to a horse....

This is Farley Mount, a memorial (folly?) to a dead horse. The inscription inside the memorial reads:

Underneath lies buried a horse, the property of Paulet St. John Esq., that in the month of September 1733 leaped into a chalk pit twenty-five feet deep afoxhuntiing with his master on his back and in October 1734 he won the Hunters Plate on Worthy Downs and was rode by his owner and was entered in the name of "Beware Chalk Pit"

And yes, I might have used a little drone.....
