What Travellers Say

"Ornately detailed memorial completed in 1843 to a design by Sir George Gilbert Scott, commemorating three Protestant martyrs who were burnt at the stake in the city in the mid 16th century.
The memorial, last restored in 2003, stands in a prominent position in the centre of a road, providing an easily identifiable meeting place."

Andrew Thomas

"Designed by George Gilbert Scott, the monument was completed in 1843 after two years' work, having replaced "a picturesque but tottering old house". The Victorian Gothic memorial, whose design dates from 1838, has been likened to the steeple of a cathedral, though it was consciously patterned on the Eleanor crosses erected by King Edward I between 1290 and 1294 to the memory of his wife, Queen Eleanor of Castile (1241–1290). Henry Weekes sculpted the three statues of Cranmer, Latimer and Ridley. The statues are carved from Caen stone while the monument itself is made of Magnesian limestone. The monument is listed at Grade II*.
Absolutely amazing craftsmanship."

Pete / Hel

"Review:
The Martyrs' Memorial is a profound tribute to those who sacrificed for the nation. Its striking architecture and historical significance make it a must-visit for reflection and remembrance. The site is well-maintained, offering a serene atmosphere that enhances its impact. Beyond its symbolic presence, it stands as a reminder of resilience and courage. A landmark rich in history, it deserves recognition as both a place of honor and an important part of the nation's heritage."
