Description
The Tomb of Feargus O'Connor, who lived from 1794 to 1855, is located in Kensal Green Cemetery and commemorates a prominent socialist and leader of the Chartist movement. The tomb is constructed from Portland stone and features a Gothic style. It has an octagonal spire shape with a moulded plinth and blind tracery on each face, all set beneath steeply-pitched hoodmoulds adorned with ball-flower stops on the spire. The epitaph begins with the words: "This monument erected by subscription chiefly from the working classes....while philanthropy is a virtue and patriotism not a crime, will the name of O'CONNOR be admired and this monument respected."
