This monument was built in 1866 in memory of the writer William Tyndale, who was born nearby. Tyndale finished translating the New Testament into English in 1525 and was martyred 13 years later in Belgium.

The monument is 111 feet (34 m) high and affords magnificent views over the surrounding landscape. It's a fairly steep hike to the monument and, once inside, the staircase is also very steep and tight (you struggle to pass on the staircase). The monument is generally open to the public, but if locked a key is available from a cottage in North Nibley, details of which are given on the notice board.

Was keen to get to this monument as you can see it from miles away . To our surprise you can enter and climb the stairs to the top . Wouldn't want be there if it's busy as the steps are very very narrow. You will also need a torch as the lower to middle steps are pitch black.

Amazing views on Cotswold Way, and a rewarding end if hiking up the steep stone path from the road. You will not be disappointed.
