This memorial sits within an acre of land given by the British to America to commemorate the 'death by assassins hand' of American President John F. Kennedy.

Unveiled in 1965 by Queen Elizabeth II, the memorial is carved from Portland Stone and weighs over seven tonnes.

The inscription reads as follows:

"This acre of English Ground was given to the United States of America by the people of Britain in memory of John F Kennedy born 29th May 1917. President of the United States 1961-63. Died by an assassin's hand 22 November 1963. Let every nation know that whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend or oppose any foe in order to assure the survival and success of liberty. From the inaugural address of President Kennedy, January 1961"
