Captain Francis Rawdon Moira Crozier, the son of a local solicitor, joined the navy and served on Franklin’s ill-fated expedition in search of the North West passage. He was born in 1796 and died in the expedition in 1848. This monument, in Church Square, was erected in 1862 to the design of WJ Barre. His birthplace was Avonmore House (the large house on the right of the photo). It is now, appropriately, a solicitor’s office.
