Thomas Bilney
A Catholic priest, promoting Church reform (above), Bilney was the first of the martyrs to die in London in 1531. He was burned on a charge of heresy at Billingsgate, 19 August 1531, partly owing to his association with more radical thinkers, among them Hugh Latimer, who regarded him as a mentor.
