Captain Crozier was born in Banbridge, Co Down, in 1796, and initially volunteered with the Royal Navy, going on to serve in it. The town of Banbridge celebrates his legacy, with a monument erected in 1862, 14 years after his disappearance on an expedition to find the North-West Passage.
The family home, which bears a blue plaque commemorating the famous explorer, is located near the monument, visible from its windows. According to Clarke Restoration, the monument is "one of eight points across the world acknowledging Francis Crozier's contribution towards exploration and science".
