Lower Ashtead, Surrey

War Memorial, Barnett Wood Lane

Uploader's Comments

The War Memorial is on the corner of Barnett Wood Lane and Oakfield Road, by St. George's Church. The inscription reads: "In honoured and thankful memory of the men of this parish who gave their lives in the service of their King and country 1914-1919". Below this is another line, partially obscured by the flowers, but it almost certainly reads: "Their names shall live forevermore". Below is a stone with a list of the names of the dead from the Second World War of 1939-1945. Just above this is an urn in remembrance of an RAF officer, who was killed in 1953. All of these can be seen in:- [[2032449]].
