    William Draper Memorial

    The William Draper Memorial in Clifton, Bristol, is reputed to be the oldest war memorial in Britain. Erected in 1767 by Sir William Draper, it commemorates the soldiers of the 79th Regiment who fought in the Seven Years’ War, notably capturing Manila in 1762. Originally located in Draper’s garden at Manilla Hall, the monument was moved to its present site on Clifton Down in 1883, standing as a classical limestone sarcophagus topped with an urn.
