History

The memorial was vandalised around 2015 and some of the bronze plaques and wreaths stolen. The church renovated the memorial and added resin replicas in August 2017 to replace the stolen items. A review of the memorial in October 2020 confirms that all the wreaths are resin (with one showing further damage). The three plaques showing names appear to be patinated bronze, assumed original. The date plaque is a resin replacement.
