The Albert Memorial, Kensington Gardens, London.

            In 1861 Prince Albert died of typhoid aged just 42. Grief stricken Queen Victoria commissioned this national memorial to recognise the British publics deep sense of loss.
At a cost of over £10,000,000 in today's terms the 54m high memorial has a huge gilt bronze statue of Albert ( pictured ) looking south towards the Royal Albert Hall.
