Head of Cromwell head sold for debt and exhibition tale
A mummy head reputed to be Oliver Cromwell, kept by Horace Wilkinson at a Sevenoaks home, passed through multiple owners since the 18th century. The tale traces its descent from the Russells to Cox’s Bend Street museum and later to Wilkinson, who preserves the relic in a wooden chest with an oil painting of the head.
