This monument stands as a memorial to the eleven men and women who were put to death near this spot in the sixteenth century for their consciences. It is a granite and metal structure, created by G. Maile and sons in 1910; somewhat awkwardly, it is situated in the middle of the main ring road roundabout at St Patrick's. See Image] for their names.
