Weld Mausoleum

Weld Mausoleum, North Street, Chideock. The Welds were the local estate holders after Thomas Weld of Lulworth Castle bought the estate of Chideock for his 6th son, Humphrey, in 1802. After Humphrey’s death in 1852, the estate passed to his son, Charles. Charles had built and may also have designed the mausoleum, perhaps in conjunction with J S Hansom.
