This is a memorial to Simon De Montfort, who was killed in the Battle of Evesham in 1265 (2015 marked the 750th anniversary of the battle), and is located at the former site of Evesham Abbey.  The plaque shown was added in 1965; a second plaque was added in August 2015 on the opposite side of the memorial (See next image).

This photograph was featured as part of an article on the Battle of Evesham in issue 9/15 of "Zillo Medieval" Magazine.   It was my second paid publishing credit.
