    Thanks for all the continuing contributions.

    I'm going to try to create an index, for all 30 pages so far ... can I ask those who have already contributed to please double-check their posts?

    Unfortunately all the individual post Titles got lost in the migration to new software. Some posts which previously only had the memorial names in their titles, now don't have any location. It'd be a bit of a shame to leave them orphaned like that after all the trouble you've gone to to photograph and post.

    Cheers

    Also located in All Saints' church, is a memorial to the crew, of an R.A.F. Halifax including two news reporters, which crashed, when its wing tip struck the ground in a heavy snow blizzard 1947, whilst attempting to drop supplies to the village when cut off by snow.

    That would be fantastic Diane. I have used this thread so many times recently whilst tracking my Chindit boys home memorial.

    You're a star as usual. :)

    This is the Memorial (Book of Remembrance)
    To the workers of The London Evening Standard newspaper who were KIA.
    Most were serving in The Royal Fusiliers,( City of London Regt ).
    the Memorial is in the Crypt of St Brides Church, Fleet St, London, EC4.
    I have the honour of laying the production staff wreath there each year.
