"War memorials are a unique aspect of our national heritage" (War Memorials Trust)
What are war memorials?
War memorials can range from entire buildings and structures to simple plaques on a wall. The majority of memorials are monuments or structures and are most commonly found in town centres, parks, churchyards and public spaces.
Most war memorials have plaques or inscriptions listing the names of those who died in battle, although some may be dedicated to a specific battle or regiment.
