Summary
| Description |
English: The Tolpuddle Martyrs museum and cottages The six cottages were built in 1934 as a centenary memorial to the six men who formed a friendly society in an attempt to ameliorate the starvation wages paid to agricultural workers in the 1830s. The men, James Brine; James Hammett; George Loveless; James Loveless; Thomas Standfield and John Standfield were tried and found guilty in 1834 on a trumped up charge and were transported to Australia. A popular movement of support resulted in the release of five in 1836 and the final one in 1837.
The cottages incorporated a library for the workers, at the centre of the terrace, which evolved into the current museum after the deposit of many artefacts relating to the martyrs. |
