Tucked away in its own paddock at the corner of a field and above the houses in Station Road is the Memorial raised in 1931 to commemorate the Lollard Martyrs who were burned at the stake in 1521 for exercising their claimed rights of religious liberty. The photo was taken during a snow squall. For a close up view see Image
