The Tyndale Monument at North Nibley in Gloucestershire was completed in 1866 as a memorial to William Tyndale, one of the first people to translate the bible into English.

It stands 34 metres (111 feet) tall.  A spiral staircase of 121 steps leads to the top with views across the Severn Estuary.

We rely on donations to keep the monument maintained and safe. Donate
