Monument to Doctor Rowland Taylor, Hadleigh, Suffolk
Pyramidal stone put in place in 1818 in commemoration of Dr Rowland Taylor. It replaced an earlier stone that probably dated back to the early 17th century. Dr Taylor was chaplain to Archbishop Cranmer in the 16th century and appointed by him to the rectory of Hadleigh. Taylor was also a protestant and was a victim of Catholic persecutions. On the orders of Mary I he was burnt at the stake on Aldham Common in 1555.
