    There is (1) RAAF lad of WW2 and (1) AFC and (3) RAF of WW1 still to be photographed in (5) cemeteries in London. If you can take a photograph of the headstone/memorial or know someone that can, please let me know.

    Andy, I don't think Parkash Singh has a memorial at Golders Green. He is not listed on the CWGC website and I found this website that says his ashes were returned to the Punjab.

    Cheers....Sadly I'm finding that is all to often the case with those that are cremated there is no lasting memorial although a cememtery told me plaques never really started happening until the 90's.

    I picture of the Crematorium entrance would be great as a sub :)

    Cheers have you got one of the entrance by any chance?

    Just had a look at the memorial and it's not really anything to do with my man as he died after the war.

    Sorry not paying attention thought he died in the War, no wonder he's not on the CWGC website. I can take a trip up there a get a photo of the entrance when I get a chance.
