Mary, often referred to as Mary I of England or "Bloody Mary," is historically noted for her persecution of Protestant reformers during her reign from 1553 to 1558. The torture and executions primarily took place in London, particularly at locations such as the Tower of London and Smithfield, where many were burned at the stake for heresy. Her efforts were aimed at reversing the Protestant Reformation and restoring Catholicism in England.
