Penshaw Monument was built in 1844 atop Penshaw Hill. The monument was built as a memorial to John Lambton's work on the Durham report which was commissioned by Lord Melbourne in 1838 to seek direction on how best the British Empire should manage its colonies around the globe. (Sunderland, England)
