A Gothic Monstrosity.

No details, but I'n guessing that this is the memorial to Count Jim "Thighs" Moriarty, in Lower Penistone, Yorkshire.

Moriarty was the MP for East North Sheffield from 1874 to 1856, and was an enthusiastic member of the Sheffield Peasant Hunt.  The locals were heartily glad when he died - in suspicious circumstances.

Bonus - Just when you thought that children's films had reached the limit of oddity....WHAM.   A New My Little Pony movie.  Jeez.   It sounds frightening. Seriously, read the (short) article...
