Description
The Martyrs Monument, located in Woodside Cemetery on Broomlands Street in Paisley, was designed by architect James Drummond and sculpted by Matthew Gemmell in 1835. This monument stands approximately 3 meters high and is made of Stevenston sandstone ashlar in the form of an obelisk. The obelisk features stop-chamfered arrises, while the plinth has consoled canted corners and a convex-sided base and cornice. The monument shows significant deterioration, with very bad spalling that has been patched with cement. A granite plaque, added around 1975, restates the lost inscription.
