The cast stone Westonbirt Urn from Haddonstone is a beautifully ornate garden container originally commissioned as a commemoration by the governors of Westonbirt School, Gloucestershire. The original Westonbirt Urn was manufactured by Pulham from a design attributed to the architect Lewis Vulliamy (1791 – 1871) who was active in the early nineteenth century. This scaled-down replica of the original Westonbirt Urn is typical of Vulliamy's style, featuring spiraled gadrooning and egg-and-dart rim.
Westonbirt House in Gloucestershire belonged to the Holford family from 1665 until 1926. The present house, constructed between 1863 and 1870, was designed by Lewis Vulliamy who also remodelled the gardens. The house is constructed of high quality ashlar masonry on a grand scale and is now a Grade I listed building. Since 1928, the house has been occupied by the girls' boarding school.
Robert Stayner Holford, the builder of Westonbirt, also founded the Westonbirt Arboretum a mile away from the house. The family gave the arboretum to the Nation in 1956.It is now one of the most important arboreta in the United Kingdom.
The ornate cast stone Westonbirt Urn by Haddonstone is available in Portland, Bath and Terracotta colours.
