We are in the hillside churchyard of St Mary's, Prestwich,
4 miles (6.5 km) north of Manchester. The John Brooks Memorial commemorates
the man who campaigned alongside John Bright and Richard Cobden for the
abolition of the Corn Laws. The monument was erected two years after his
death in 1849 by members of the Anti-Corn Law League.
