A National Monument to British Heroes was a proposed Gothic Revival style hall and tower, entered as a design in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition of 1901 by architect Edward Beckitt Lamb, and presumably to be built in London.

Building News commented, in their round-up of "Architecture at the Royal Academy": "an ambitious scheme ... a well-handled group of spires and Gothic features little likely ever to be built, but none the less able, and in some ways ideal." ^[1]

Alex Bremner, Professor of Architectural History at the University of Edinburgh, notes similarities with an 1834 proposel by Sydney Smirke for a national mausoleum in Hyde Park; and echoes of continental monuments including Walhalla by Leo von Klenze (1830-42) and various Berlin proposals by Karl Friedrich Schinkel from 1814 to 1821. ^[2]

Edward Beckitt Lamb worked in conjunction with John Pollard Seddon to draw up a proposal, in 1904, for the Imperial Monumental Halls and Tower, to be built at Westminster, between Westminster Abbey and the Palace of Westminster. As with the 1901 concept, this too, remained unbuilt. ^[2]
