Comments:
Site visit carried out on Tuesday 18th July 2017. The memorial appeared to be a sound structure situated on a small grassed area across the road from the local church. Whereas the stone facia displaying the names of those lost in WW2 were clearly legible on a clean background, those lost in The Great War on a separate panel, were in a much worse condition. This is probably due to weathering and has resulted in this panel being discoloured and subject to extensive flaking. That said, the names are legible. There is also plant growth particularly around the base of the memorial and a specialised clean would be of benefit.
