This memorial was approved by the council but now they've got cold feet and are claiming it's different from plans submitted.
But the whole thing is tasteless over-indulgence IMHO (to judge its size, the two statues of the deceased are life size). How could anyone countenance such excess in a public cemetery.

everybody loves making rules but nobody can be bothered enforcing them. £4bn lost to fraudulent claims on Covid support? Forget about it. People holding illegal parties? No way the police have time to look into things like that. All a bit tough on people who do obey the rules: how long will they continue to do so?
In a rare case a few years back, someone demolished a listed London pub. To my amazement they were ordered to rebuild it, and did. But I doubt anyone will be ordered to bulldoze this one.

Ostentatious displays of death like this are so Victorian.
An over the top memorial is intended to convey the image of the deceased as a great and worthy man of high esteem. In reality is was probably a slave trader or money grubbing mill owner. The more showy the monument, the more they have to hide.
In this example the individual did not find a cure for cancer. He was just very good at smashing another man’s brain to bits with his bear hands.

As I check the website of the Sheffield Star several times a day (because I lived in the city for 20 years and I still like to keep in touch with life there), I was aware of the erection of this monument before the story hit the national press. I've been wondering about just how long it would take before we had a thread about it here!
It seems that not everyone in Sheffield is exactly over the moon about it:
