The Horn of Egremont
The Horn of Egremont, Egremont Castle, Egremont, Cumbria.
The Horn of Egremont sculpture by Paul Bainbridge. This 2006 sculpture of a knight blowing the legendary Horn of Egremont stands in the grounds of Egremont Castle. According to legend only true heirs to the castle were able to blow the horn.
William Wordsworth wrote a poem entitled The Horn of Egremont Castle, the first verse of which reads:
'ERE the Brothers through the gateway
Issued forth with old and young,
To the Horn Sir Eustace pointed.
Which for ages there had hung.
Horn it was which none could sound.
No one upon living ground,
Save He who came as rightful Heir.
To Egremont's Domains and Castle fair.'
