Summary
Sculpture, marble, Thomas Vernon, KC, MP (1654-1721). Builder of Hanbury, unsigned marble bust on black marble stand. He is shown late in life in his wig and lawyers' bands, the carving of high quality. Possibly by a London sculptor such as Francis Bird or J M Rysbrack, it might have been ordered posthumously by his successor. Vernon's monument in Hanbury Church is by Edward Stanton and Christopher Horsenaile.
