Anne Line was an English Catholic martyr born Alice Higham in Essex during the early 1560s. After converting to Catholicism in the early 1580s, she married Roger Line in February 1583. She became known for providing refuge to Catholic priests who were operating clandestinely during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Following her arrest in February 1601, she faced trial at the Old Bailey Sessions House, which ultimately led to her execution at Tyburn on February 27, 1601.
