Thomas Bromley memorial in Westminster Abbey

Notes |
Succeeded Sir Nicholas Bacon as Lord Keeper of the Privy Seal and Lord Chancellor of England. Presided at the trial and sentence of Mary Queen of Scots and never got over the responsibility. Died two months after she was finally executed. Buried in Westminster Abbey - tomb reads (trans from Latin): "When he had for eight years delivered equity with singular integrity and temper of mind, being snatched hastily away to the grief of all good men, was here buried." The monument is of Lydian marble and alabaster. The effigy represents the chancellor in his robes, in front kneel his eight children, at the back is the official purse supported by winged boys, above in the spandrels are the figures of fame and immortality, bearing trumpets.
