Comments:
I am Parish Clerk for Barrow cum Denham Parish Council. It has been bought to the attention of the Parish Council that the plinth around the War Memorial is in poor repair. I have been there today and taken some photos which I will attach. I have had to reduce the size of the photo so if the quality is too bad please let me know. The stone posts and plinth are crumbling away, some places are worse than others.
