Sculpted by Sir Richard Westmacott (1775-1856). An inscription at the base of the sculpture reads "Charles James Fox B: 24 Jan 1749 N:S: D:13 Sept 1806". This monument shows Charles James Fox lying on a mattress, supported by a figure while two other figures mourn at his feet. This monument was originally in the north transept in 1822, near the grave of Fox, but was later moved to its current position at the west of the nave.
