As an archaeologist, Cockerell is remembered for discovering the reliefs from the temple of Apollo at Bassae, near Phigalia , which are now in the British Museum . Replicas of these reliefs were included in the frieze of the library of the Travellers Club , of which Charles Robert Cockerell was a founding committee member in 1819. With Jacques Ignace Hittorff and Thomas Leverton Donaldson , Cockerell was also a member of the committee formed in 1836 to determine whether the Elgin Marbles and other Greek statuary in the British Museum had originally been coloured (see Transactions of the Royal Institute of British Architects for 1842).
