This small square contains memorials to two notable humanists – a statue of activist and politician Fenner Brockway and a bust of philosopher Bertrand Russell.
The north east corner of the Square features the main entrance to Conway Hall, home of the South Place Ethical Society since 1929.
The Square is also rumoured to have been the resting place of Oliver Cromwell’s severed head.
