Project Description

This research project focused on investigating the names listed on the Harden War Memorial, and was latterly expanded to include those local men who survived the First World War. To mark the conflict's centenary, an exhibition was held in the village, displayed at both the local library and the Visitor Centre at St Ives, in 2014. We also produced a booklet commemorating local individuals killed, which was delivered to every address within the village.
