Polyhymnia in Greek myth was the Muse of Sacred Poetry, and also of Agriculture. She is often pictured with her finger to her mouth, as though in thought.

This statue is cast in bronze and was purchased by Cholmeley Harrison. The statue was cast in bronze by Von C Kesseler c.1850 (see side of pedestal)

The statue of Polyhymnia is found at the centre back of the house in the middle of the lawns.
